Bernard Cribbins — Verily

[Verse 1] Verily, O thou art fair Two blue eyes and golden hair And verily, very verily Other good points elsewhere [Verse 2] Verily the fairest rose Thou hast these and thou hast those And verily, very verily All of it where it shows [Verse 3] Merrily would life go by If thou and I could marry But, when I see thee tarry With Thomas, Richard, and Harry, Mary [Verse 4] Verily thou art two-faced And protesting thou art chaste It's verily, very verily Hardly the best of taste Thou wert doing The pursuing Verily [Interjection (spoken)] A most harmonious parcel of musicians, and plеase you Yonder knave on thе bass viol fairly swingeth If faith he'd have all his doublet down to a singlet ere he's done! Haha! [Verse 5] Verily thy love is frail Should I fetch thee cakes and ale Or verily, very verily A clout on the farthingale [Verse 6] Verily thou art unkind Thou doth know what I've in mind But verily, very verily Thou doth excuses find [Verse 7] Merrily could I make play With Joan or Jane Or Sally Whilst thou dost shilly-shally And have a bit of a dilly-dally [Verse 8] Verily thou gives me pain In a place I can't explain And verily, very verily If it occurs again Though it pain thee I shall brain thee Verily
