Sophie Best single lines PART TWO (49) RE: Best single lines PART TWO 16 Jun 99


This straight from the truly magnificent date-base is on of my favourite lines (well verses)of any folksong. The young men singing the song asks the girl if he can walk out with her. She replies, rather catty: "Were I to say yea, I would say 'gainst my mind, And for to say no, you would think I was unkind For to sit and say nothing, you would say I was dumb, So take that for your answer and go as you come."

Auch! I swear I will try this answer in a pub one day...

Sophie
