Tell Me Truly Lyrics

Out when walking in the garden
I ask you to be mine
I tell to you I love you
and you my heart decline
my father was a spanish merchant
before he went to sea
he told me to be sure and answer
‘no' to all but he

Tell me truly
tell me why do you scorn me
why when I ask
you answer me ‘no'

Out when walking in the garden
her blushes she did show
tell me would you be offended
if one kiss I did bestow
madam may I tie your garter
would you let me make so free
if I should be a little bolder
would you think it wrong of me

Tell me truly
tell me why do you scorn me
why when I ask
you answer me ‘no'
Tell me truly
tell me why do you scorn me
why when I ask
you answer me ‘no'

Out when walking in the garden
I asked you to be mine
I told you i love you
and you my heart declined
but if to bed we went together
I would stay till cocks do crow
and when it's time for me to leave you
you won't ever let me go

Tell me truly
tell me why do you scorn me
why when I ask
you answer me ‘no'
Tell me truly
tell me why do you scorn me
why when I ask
you answer me ‘no'
Tell me truly
tell me why do you scorn me
why when I ask
you answer me ‘no'
