THE KEYS OF CANTERBURYA
-
Oh madam I will give you the keys of CanterburyA
To set all the bells ringing when we shall be merryA
If you will but walk abroad with meA
If you will but walk with meA

Sir I'll not accept of the keys of CanterburyA
To set all the bells ringing when we shall be merryA
Neither will I walk abroad with theeA
Neither will I talk with theeA
-
Oh madam I will give you a fine carved combB
To comb out your ringlets when I am from homeB
If you will but walk with me cA
Sir I'll not accept cA

Oh madam I will give you a pair of shoes of corkC
One made in London the other made in YorkC
If you will but walk with me cA
Sir I'll not accept cA

Madam I will give you a sweet silver bellD
To ring up your maidens when you are not wellD
If you will but walk with me cA
Sir I'll not accept cA

Oh my man John what can the matter beA
I love the lady and the lady loves not meA
Neither will she walk abroad with meA
Neither will she talk with meA
-
Oh master dear do not despairE
The lady she shall be shall be your only dearF
And she will walk and talk with theeA
And she will walk with theeA
-
Oh madam I will give you the keys of my chestG
To count my gold and silver when I am gone to restG
If you will but walk abroad with meA
If you will but talk with meA
-
Oh sir I will accept of the keys of your chestG
To count your gold and silver when you are gone to restG
And I will walk abroad with theeA
And I will talk with theeA
