All of Her Answers Were No Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Madam, I have come for to court you
Your affection's for to gain
If you'll give me good attention
Perhaps I'll come twice more again

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no

[Verse 2]
Madam, I have gold and silver
Madam, I have a house and land
Madam, I have a world of pleasure
It'll be yours at your command

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no

[Verse 3]
What care I for your gold and silver?
What care I for your house and land?
What care I for your world of pleasure?
All I want is a handsome man

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no

[Verse 4]
Madam, you seem [?] on beauty
Beauty is a thing that'll fade away
Gather a red rose in the morning
Then by noon it'll fade away

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no

[Verse 5]
The ripest apple will soon grow rotten
The warmest glove will soon grow cold
Young man's promise soon forgotten
Pray little miss, don't be so bold

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no

[Verse 6]
The Arkansas boys, they ain't [?]
They don't know how to court the girls
Turn their backs and hide their faces
Pray little miss, this ain't the way

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no

[Verse 7]
Now, the Texas boys, they're the fellows
They know how to court the girls
Hug them a little and kiss them plenty
Pray little miss, this is the way

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no

[Verse 8]
Madam, I have been to London
Madam, I have been to France
Many a time my mammy's whipped me
Oh, Lord, honey, how she made me dance

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no

[Verse 9]
Madam, I have come for to court you
Your affection's for to gain
If you'll give me good attention
Perhaps I'll call twice more again

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no
Oh, oh, no, no, sir, no
All of her answers to me were no
