letra de the bashful courtship - jean ritchie, paul clayton & richard chase
[jean ritchie]
a gentleman came to our house
he wouldn’t tell his name
i knew he’d come a-courtin’
though he did act ashamed
oh, though he did act ashamed
he drew his chair up to my side
his manners pleased me well
i thought the spirit moved him
some handsome tale to tell
oh, some handsome tale to tell
but there he sat the livelong night
and never a word did say
he only sat and sighed and groaned
whilе i did wish for day
oh, while i did wish for day
the chickens thеy began to crow
and daylight did appear
“how do you do? good morning, sir
i’m glad to see you here
oh, i’m glad to see you here”
i was weary all the livelong night
i was weary all my life
if this is what you call courtin’, boys
you’ll never get a wife
no, you’ll never get a wife
now when he goes in company
the girls all laugh for sport
saying, “yander goes that ding-dang fool
who don’t know how to court
oh, who don’t know how to court”
