Madam Lyrics & Chords By The Unthanks
A maiden walking in her garden
But her name I do not know
I'll go and court her for her beauty
Let the answer be yes or no
"Madam, madam, I'll come a-courting
That your favour I may gain
Sit you down you're kindly welcome
Then perhaps you may call again
"Madam I have gold and silver
Madam I have house and land
Madam I have a world of pleasure
Leave it all at your command"
"Don't tell me of your gold and silver
Don't tell me of your house and land
Don't tell me of your world of pleasure
All I want is a handsome man"
Handsome men are out of fashion
Maiden's beauty soon decays
You'll pick a flower of the bright summer morning
Before the evening will fade away
First come the oxlip then the cruel
Then the pink and then the may
Then come a new love and then come true love
Before the evening will fade away
Once I lay on a young man's pillow
Which I thought it was my own
Now I do lay under the willow
All for the sake of a false young man
Before the evening will fade away
