Friendly Persuasion lyrics

Thee I love

More than the meadows so green and still,

More than the mulberries on the hill,

More than the buds on the mayapple tree

I love thee.

Arms have I, strong as the oak

for this occasion.

Lips have I to kiss thee too

in friendly persuasion.

Thee is mine

Though I don't know many words of praise,

Thee pleasures me in a hundred ways.

Put on your bonnet, your cape and your glove

and come with me, for thee I love.
