Madam, Will You Walk?

O will you accept of a new silver pin
To pin up your hair and your fine mus-e-lin
     Madam will you walk?
     Madam will you talk with me?

No, I won't acccpt of a new silver pin
To pin up my hair and my fine mus-e-lin
     Neither will I walk
     Neither will I talk with you.

Will you accept of the key of my heart
To bind us together and to never never part!
     Madam will you walk?
     Madam will you talk with me?

No, I won't accept of the key of your heart
To bind us together and to never never part
     Madam will you walk?
     Madam will you talk with me?


Will you accept of the key of my des'
And all the money that I posscss?
     Madam will you walk?
     Madam will you talk with me?

Yes, I will acccpt of the key of your des'
And all the money that you possess
     Then I will walk
     Then I will talk with you.

Coda:
     When you could, you would not
     Now you will, you shall not
     So fare thee well
     My Catherine Sue
