MANY a guest I'd see to dayA
-
Met to taste my dishesB
Food in plenty is prepar'dC
-
Birds and game and fishesB
Invitations all have hadD
-
All proposed attendingE
Johnny go and look aroundF
-
Are they hither wendingE
-
Pretty girls I hope to seeG
-
Dear and guileless missesB
Ignorant how sweet it isH
-
Giving tender kissesB
Invitations all have hadD
-
All proposed attendingE
Johnny go and look aroundF
-
Are they hither wendingE
-
Women also I expectI
-
Loving tow'rd their spousesB
Whose rude grumbling in their breastsJ
-
Greater love but rousesJ
Invitations they've had tooK
-
All proposed attendingE
Johnny go and look aroundF
-
Are they hither wendingE
-
I've too ask'd young gentlemenL
-
Who are far from haughtyG
And whose purses are well stock'dM
-
Well behaved not haughtyG
These especially I ask'dN
-
All proposed attendingE
Johnny go and look aroundF
-
Are they hither wendingE
-
Men I summon'd with respectI
-
Who their own wives treasureO
Who in ogling other FairP
-
Never take a pleasureO
To my greetings they repliedQ
-
All proposed attendingE
Johnny go and look aroundF
-
Are they hither wendingE
-
Then to make our joy completeR
-
Poets I invitedS
Who love other's songs far moreT
-
Than what they've inditedU
All acceded to my wishV
-
All proposed attendingE
Johnny go and look aroundF
-
Are they hither wendingE
-
Not a single one appearsJ
-
None seem this way postingE
All the soup boils fast awayA
-
Joints are over roastingE
Ah I fear that we have beenL
-
Rather too unbendingE
Johnny tell me what you thinkW
-
None are hither wendingE
-
Johnny run and quickly bringE
-
Other guests to me nowX
Each arriving as he isJ
-
That's the plan I see nowX
In the town at once 'tis knownY
-
Every one's commendingE
Johnny open all the doorsJ
-
All are hither wendingE
