Lyrics

Oh Johnny, Johnny, but love is bonny A little while when first it's new Ah, but love grows old and waxes cold Fades, fades away like morning dew Oh Johnny, Johnny, but you are nice, love In keeping company with me so long For you were the first boy that e'er I had, love So kiss me, Johnny, before you go One kiss from me you will never get, love For you have caused me so sore to sigh Nor will I grant you that sweet request, love That ofttime you did me deny If I should grant you that sweet request, love My heart, on you, I might then bestow But as good a lover as you will come, love So I'll not hinder you to go For I have stepped the steps of love, love And I have stepped a step too low Were it to be done that I have done, love It would never be done by me, I know It's o'er the moss that you need not cross, love And o'er the moor that you need not ride For I have gotten a new sweetheart, love And you may go get yourself a bride
