Song (continued)
“As I went out walking one morning in Spring”
(continued from previous page)Five long years I've courted against my own will;
And now I intend to have my own will
So I won't be a maiden on Monday morning.
5
On Monday morning, the bells they will ring;
My husband stand by me and give me a gold ring;
And when we are married we'll have our own fling.
So I won't be a maiden on Monday morning.
