[Intro]As I went out one morningTo breathe the air around Tom Paine'sI spied the fairest damselThat ever did walk in chainsI offer'd her my handShe took me by the armI knew that very instantShe meant to do me harm[Gaita]"Depart from me this moment,"I told her with my voiceSaid she, "But I don't wish to,"Said I, "But you have no choice.""I beg you, sir," she pleadedFrom the corners of her mouth"I will secretly accept youAnd together we'll fly south."Just then Tom Paine, himselfCame running from across the fieldShouting at this lovely girlAnd commanding her to yieldAnd as she was letting go her gripUp Tom Paine did run"I'm sorry, sir," he said to me"I'm sorry for what she's done."
