Jesseye 'Lizabeth
Pray tell, Jesseye 'Lizabeth
Tell me why you're weeping
Pray tell, Jesseye 'Lizabeth
When you should be sleeping
What secret are you keeping?
Jesseye 'Lizabeth, pray tell
What could cause such bitter tears?
What lesson has life taught you?
Hear me sweet and precious one
Look what I've brought you
Here's a star I caught you
For my lady fair star
Pray tell, Jesseye 'Lizabeth
What can I do for you?
Pray tell, Jesseye 'Lizabeth
Fair maiden I implore you
Oh how I adore you
Your humble servant I remain
Pray tell, Jesseye 'Lizabeth
Oh how I have missed you
Now you must dry your pretty eyes
I'm here to assist you
Come let Mama kiss you
Twelve o'clock and all is well
