Oh, I have a bonnet trimmed with blue, And do I wear it? Why, yes, I do! I will wear it when I can, When walking out with my young man. Oh, I have a coat of emerald green, The finest coat that ever was seen, And I will wear it when I can, When walking out with my young man. And I have a dress of crimson red, Yes, crimson red is what I said! I will wear it when I can, When walking out with my young man. "I’ll give you a ring of the purest gold: That is yours to have, and yours to hold, And yours to wear whenever you can When walking out with your young man." I’ve just bought a dress of satin white To wear with my ring of gold so bright, And I will wear them as soon as I can, For I’m to be wed with my young man.
