Sanjay Sircar Songs for young woman - old man duo (58* d) RE: Songs for young woman - old man duo 14 Jan 13


"Shoo fly, don't bother me"

"Now listen all ye maidens,
About to choose a man
Don't choose one who's ancient,
Get a young one if you can -

For an old man he is old
And an old man he is grey
But a young's man's harrt is full of love
GET AWAY, OLD MAN, GET AWAY!

Be sure to marry a young man
With a red and rosy cheek
Not to marry a man with a cabne in his han'
Whose back is very weak [snigger]

For an old man etc.

Shoo fly, don;t bother me (3)
Get away, old man, get away!"

There are lots of other stanzas, I think. This forum will know them all.

Sanjay Sircar
