Staines Morris
Come, you young men
Come along, bring your music, dance and song
Bring your lasses in your hands
For tis that which love commands
Tis the choice time of the year
For the violets now appear
And the rose receives its birth
And the pretty primrose decks the Earth
Then to the maypole haste away
For tis now our holiday
Then to the maypole haste away
For tis now our holiday
And when you well-reckoned have
What kisses you your sweethearts gave
Take them all again and more
And it will never make them poor
Come along, with your music, dance and song
Bring your lasses in your hands
For tis that which love commands
Tis the choice time of the year
For the violets now appear
And the rose receives its birth
And the pretty primrose decks the Earth
And when you thus have spent your time
And the day be past its prime
To your beds repair at night
And dream there of your heart's delight
Then to the maypole haste away
For tis now our holiday
Then to the maypole haste away
For tis now our holiday
A holiday
A holiday!
Come along, bring your music, dance and song
Bring your lasses in your hands
For tis that which love commands
Tis the choice time of the year
For the violets now appear
And the rose receives its birth
And the pretty primrose decks the Earth
Then to the maypole haste away
For tis now our holiday
Then to the maypole haste away
For tis now our holiday
And when you well-reckoned have
What kisses you your sweethearts gave
Take them all again and more
And it will never make them poor
Come along, with your music, dance and song
Bring your lasses in your hands
For tis that which love commands
Tis the choice time of the year
For the violets now appear
And the rose receives its birth
And the pretty primrose decks the Earth
And when you thus have spent your time
And the day be past its prime
To your beds repair at night
And dream there of your heart's delight
Then to the maypole haste away
For tis now our holiday
Then to the maypole haste away
For tis now our holiday
A holiday
A holiday!
