O Love Is Teasin’ Songtext
Oh love is teasin′, and love is pleasin'
And love′s a pleasure when first it is new
But as love grows older, it still grows colder
And fades away like the mornin' dew
Come all ye fair maids, now take a warnin'
Don′t ever heed what a young man will say
He′s like a star on a foggy mornin'
When you think he′s near, he's far away
I left my father, I left my mother
I left my brothers, and my sisters too
I left my home, and my fond dwelling
My young man, for the sake of you
Oh love is teasin′, and love is pleasin'
And love′s a pleasure when first it is new
But as love grows older, it still grows colder
And fades away like the mornin' dew
And love′s a pleasure when first it is new
But as love grows older, it still grows colder
And fades away like the mornin' dew
Come all ye fair maids, now take a warnin'
Don′t ever heed what a young man will say
He′s like a star on a foggy mornin'
When you think he′s near, he's far away
I left my father, I left my mother
I left my brothers, and my sisters too
I left my home, and my fond dwelling
My young man, for the sake of you
Oh love is teasin′, and love is pleasin'
And love′s a pleasure when first it is new
But as love grows older, it still grows colder
And fades away like the mornin' dew
