No. 4 - Entrance and Song - Tee-To
| Male Chorus: | We scoff at the man who sits at home, With junior on his knee. Sing ho! for the chap who's free to roam, The bachelor bold and free! For why should a fellow concentrate His love and one adore, When he can remain in single state, And love at least a score? Then tempt us not with the sight of maidens fair, For who would dwell in a vine-clad cot When he can be free as air? As free, my boys, as the air, my boys, and rambling ev'rywhere. With a song and a shout for the nightly bout, And a life all free from care. |
| Tee-To: | Cease I pray you, your cheap bravado. |
| Men: | What say you, Bravado? |
| Tee-To: | Across my reckless pathway there has strayed A most divinely fair and luscious maid. No more for me the jovial drinking song, Thus shall I plead with her the whole day long. |
| Men: | Thus will he plead the whole... |
| Tee-To: | Oh! come with me, sweet creature young and fair, With you I'll dwell in a vine-clad cot, Our life shall be free from care. For you, my love are the one, my love, My queen beyond compare. Do not fear, do not doubt, Such a love devout I'll live for you, I swear. |
