I know a youth who loves a little

maid -

(Hey but his face is a sight for to see )

Silent is he for he's modest and afraid -

(Hey but he's timid as a youth can be )

I know a maid who loves a gallant youth

(Hey but she sickens as the days go by )

She cannot tell him all the sad sad truth -

(Hey but I think that little maid will die )

Poor little man

Poor little maid

Poor little man

Poor little maid

Now tell me pray and tell me true

What in the world should the young man / maiden do

He cannot eat and he cannot sleep -

(Hey but his face is a sight for to see )

Daily he goes for to wail - for to weep -

(Hey but he's wretched as a youth can be )

She's very thin and she's very pale -

(Hey but she sickens as the days go by )

Daily she goes for to weep - for to wail -

(Hey but I think that little maid will die )

Poor little maid

Poor little man

Poor little maid

Poor little man

Now tell me pray and tell me true

What in the world should the young man / maiden do

If I were the youth I should offer her my name -

(Hey but her face is a sight for to see )

If were the maid I should fan his honest flame -

(Hey but he's bashful as a youth can be )

If I were the youth I should speak to her to-day -

(Hey but she sickens as the days go by )

If I were the maid I should meet the lad half way -

(For I really do believe that timid youth will die )

Poor little man

Poor little maid

Poor little man

Poor little maid

I thank you miss / sir for your counsel true

I'll tell that youth / maid what he/she ought to do
