When young my heart was bent, sir,
Upon a nice young beau,
So to my ma I went, sir,
And she reprov'd me so.

"Indeed my dear, you're joking,
You're still too young to know;
So take your time Miss Lucy,
Miss Lucy,Lucy, oh!

So take your time Miss Lucy,
Miss Lucy,Lucy, oh!"

But not content with that, sir,
To father I did go;
But he my head did pat, sir,
And plumply answer'd, "No!

There's time enough for lovers,
So, don't impatient grow.
Just take your time Miss Lucy,
Miss Lucy, Lucy oh!

Just take your time Miss Lucy,
Miss Lucy,Lucy oh!
