[Verse 1]
They told me you had been to her
And mentioned me to him
She gave me a good character
But said I could not swim
[Verse 2]
He sent them word I had not gone
We know it to be true
If she should push the matter on
What would become of you?
[Verse 3]
I gave her one, they gave him two
You gave us three or more
They all returned from him to you
Though they were mine before
[Verse 4]
If I or she should chance to be
Involved in this affair
Hе trusts to you to set them free
Exactly as we wеre
[Verse 5]
My notion was that you had been
Before she had this fit
An obstacle that came between
Him, and ourselves, and it
They told me you had been to her
And mentioned me to him
She gave me a good character
But said I could not swim
[Verse 2]
He sent them word I had not gone
We know it to be true
If she should push the matter on
What would become of you?
[Verse 3]
I gave her one, they gave him two
You gave us three or more
They all returned from him to you
Though they were mine before
[Verse 4]

Hе trusts to you to set them free
Exactly as we wеre

Before she had this fit
An obstacle that came between
Him, and ourselves, and it
