[jean ritchie]
oh sir, i see you comin’ again
pray tell me what it’s for
when i left you in barbourville
i told you to come no more, more
i told you to come no more

[paul clayton]
oh miss, i have a very fine house
it’s newly built with pine
and you may have it at your command
if you would be my bride, bride
if you would be my bride

[jean ritchie]
sir, i know it’s a very fine house
also a very fine yard
but who will stay in home with me
when you’re out playing cards, cards?
when you’re out playing cards?

[paul clayton]
i ain’t never played a card in all my life
i’ve never thought it right
if you concent to be my bridе
i’ll stay away n’ary a night, night
i’ll stay away n’ary a night
[paul clayton]
now miss, i have a very fine farm
it’s sixty acrеs wide
and you shall have it at your command
if you will be my bride, bride
if you will be my bride

[jean ritchie]
sir, i know it’s a very fine farm
full of very fine fruit
as you come in, i’ll drive you out
for you know a hog must root, root
you know a hog must root

[paul clayton]
oh miss, i have a very fine horse
he paces like the tide
and you may have him at your command
whenever you want to ride, ride
whenever you want to ride

[jean ritchie]
oh sir, i know hes a very fine horse
also a very fine barn
but his master drinks and gambles so
i’m afraid his horse will learn, learn
i’m afraid his horse will learn
[paul clayton]
well madam, you don’t like me at all
it’s very plain to tell
i’ll go marry whom i please
and you can go do as well, well
and you can go do as well
