I CARE NOT FOR THESE LADIES I care not for these ladies who must be wooed and praised Give me kind Amaryllis, the wanton country maid O nature art disdaineth, her beauty is her own For when we court and kiss she cries forsooth, let go But when we come where comfort is she never will say no These ladies must have pillows and beds by strangers bought Give me a bower of willows with moss and leaves all wrought And my fresh Amaryllis with milk and honey fed For when we court and kiss she cries forsooth, let go But when we come where comfort is she never will say no If I love Amaryllis she brings me fruit and flowers But if we love these ladies we must give golden showers Give them gold that sell love but I'll have the nut brown lass For when we court and kiss she cries forsooth, let go But when we come where comfort is she never will say no Note: Needless (I hope) to say, slang changes with time (Last verse line 2) RG filename[ AMARYLIS TUNE FILE: AMARYLIS CLICK TO PLAY AJS |
