(Words by Paul Francis Webster and Music by Dmitri Tiomkin)
|
Thee I love, more than the meadow so green and still
|
More than the mulberries on the hill
|
More than the buds on the May apple tree, I love thee
|
|
Arms have I, strong as the oak, for this occasion
|
Lips have I, to kiss thee, too, in friendly persuasion
|
|
Thee is mine, though I don't know many words of praise
|
Thee pleasures me in a hundred ways
|
Put on your bonnet, your cape, and your glove
|
And come with me, for thee I love
|
|
[Instrumental Interlude]
|
|
Friendly persuasion
|
|
Thee is mine, though I don't know many words of praise
|
Thee pleasures me in a hundred ways
|
Put on your bonnet, your cape, and your glove
|
And come with me, for thee I love
|
