Jack n' Jill

Jack

Babe, you’re the night

Your beauty light,

Like a moth to light

You draw suitors day and night,

What am I gonna do

To have you for me alone?

Jill

Oh boy you fret so much

I’m yours and yours shall be

Doubt all love but mine

I know no one but you.

Jack

Babe, if you’re a wall

I’d top you wit’ concertina,

If you’re a gate

I’d reinforce you wit’ steel

And be standing there still.

Jill

Remember the love we feasted

Under the apple tree, and its poetry

It burns like a raging fire,

Water can’t put it out.

Jack

I have a song to sing

And a bell to ring,

I’ll cross the stream

To make true my dream

Dance to the tune of your love

And hear you happily laugh.

Jill

I am a wall, a fortress

There shall be no war

Be content and peaceful;

As perky as a deer

To me you’re so dear.
