Song for a Girl Lyrics
Young I am and yet unskilled
How to make a lover yield
How to keep, or how to gain
When to love, and when to feign
Take me, take me, some of you
While I yet am young and true;
Ere I can my soul disguise
Heave my breasts, and roll my eyes
Stay not till I learn the way
How to lie, and to betray;
He that has me first, is blest
For I may deceive the rest
Could I find a blooming youth
Full of love and full of truth
Brisk, and of a jaunty mien
I should long to be fifteen
