Chorus

O John, come kiss me now, now, now;
O John, my luve, come kiss me now;
O John, come kiss me by and by,
For weel ye ken the way to woo. —

O some will court and compliment,
And ither some will kiss and daut;
But I will mak o' my gudeman,
My ain gudeman, it is nae faute. —
O John &c.

O some will court and compliment,
And ither some will prie their mou,
And some will hause in ithers arms,
And that 's the way I like to do. —
O John &c.
