Care Away
All that I may swink or swet
My wife it will both drinke and ete;
And I sey ought, she will me bete-
Carfull is my hart therfor!
Care away, away, away-
Care away for evermore!
If I sey ought of her but good
She loke on me as she war wood
And will me clout about the hood-
Carefull is my hart therfor!
If she will to the gud ale ride
Then me must trot all be her side;
And whan she drinke, I must abide-
Carfull is my hart therfor!
And if I say "It shall be thus,"
She sey "Thou liest, charl, iwous!
Wenest thou overcome me thus?"
Carfull is my hart therfor!
