Paper of Pins
Traditional Song
I'll give to you a paper of pins,
If that's the way that love begins,
If you will marry,
Marry, marry, marry,
If you'll marry me.
I don't want your paper of pins,
If that's the way that love begins,
For I won't marry,
Marry, marry, marry
I won't marry you.
I'll give to you a silver spoon,
Feed the baby in the afternoon
If you will marry,
Marry, marry, marry,
If you'll marry me.
I don't want your silver spoon
To feed the baby in the afternoon,
For I won't marry,
Marry, marry, marry
I won't marry you.
I'll give to you a golden ball,
To bounce from the kitchen to the hall,
If you will marry,
Marry, marry, marry
If you'll marry me.
I don't want your golden ball
To bounce from the kitchen to the hall,
For I won't marry,
Marry, marry, marry
I won't marry you.
I'll give to you the keys of the chest,
And all the money that I possess,
If you will marry,
Marry, marry, marry,
If you'll marry me.
If you give me the keys of the chest,
And all the money that you possess,
Then I will marry,
Marry, marry, marry,
I will marry you.
Ah ha ha, now I see,
You love my money but you don't love me,
So I won't marry,
Marry, marry, marry,
I won't marry you.
