Thread Name: Lyr Req: The Humour Is on Me Now
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: I will and I must get married
off the top of my head...may be minor differences in versions...

"One evening last September, as the dew lay on the lawn
A mother and her daughter went out to promenard.
And as they promenarded, the daughter made this vow,
"Oh, I must & will be married, for the fit comes on me now"

"Oh, daughter, dearest daughter, please hold your silly tongue".
"you speak of getting married when you know you are too young"
"I am sixteen next Sunday, Ma, and that you must allow,"
Oh, I must and will be married, for the fit comes on me now"

ooops..RT interruption...will post this much and type rest in a bit,,,unless someone beats me to it...
