Let's dance the gig

C. Coles

Let's dance the jig!

O most I loved her pretty eyes

More clear than starlight of the skies.

I loved her eyes where malice lies.

Let's dance the jig!

She had some ways most well designed

To desolate a lover's mind

Which was of her so very kind.

Let's dance the jig!

But now I prove much better this

Eke of her blossom mouth the kiss

Since when she's dead to me I wis.

Let's dance the jig!

I do remember vividly

The hours and all our colloquy

And that's the best thing left to me.

Let's dance the jig!
