As I Went Out One Morning
As I went out one morning To breathe the air around Tom Paine's I spied the fairest damsel That ever did walk in chains
I offered her my hand She took me by the arm I knew that very instant She meant to do me harm
Depart from me this moment I told her with my voice Said she, 'But I don't wish to'' Said I, 'But you have no choice''
'I beg you, sir'', she pleaded Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com From the corners of her mouth I will secretly accept you And together we'll fly south
Just then Tom Paine himself Came runnin' from across the field Shoutin' at this lovely girl And commandin' her to yield
And as she was lettin' go her grip Up Tom Paine did run 'I'm sorry sir'', he said to me 'I'm sorry for what she's done'
