Oh no, John    
         
 
On yonder hill there stands a creature
who she is I do not know
I'll go and court her for her beauty
she must answer "Yes" or "No"
Oh no, John! No John! No John! No!
 
My father was a Spanish captain
went to sea a month ago
first he kissed me, then he left me
bid me always to say No
Oh no, John...
 
O Madam, in your face is beauty
on your lips red roses grow
will you take me for your lover?
Madam, answer Yes or No!
Oh no, John...
 
O Madam, I will give you jewels
I will make you rich and free
I will give you silken dresses
madam, will you marry me?
Oh no, John...
 
Oh Madam, since you are so cruel
and that you do scorn me so
if I may not be your lover
Madam, will you let me go ?
Oh no, John...
 
Then I will stay with you forever
if you will not be unkind
madam, I have vowed to love you
would you have me change my mind?
Oh no, John...
 
O hark! I hear the church bells ringing
will you come and be mi wife?
Or, dear Madam, have you settled
to live single all your life?
Oh ,o, John...
