When I was a boy of nine
I loved you with all my mind
All my heart, all my soul
Love me now or lose it all
Your sister Jean and Anne Marie
Say that you're in love with me
Is there something I can't see?
Love me now or leave me be
Down by the river on past the creek
All the way to widow's peak
Proclaim the love that you didn't speak
Love me now or hold your peace
The baker and the butcher's wife
Say you lead a lonely life
Need a man to stand beside
Love me now or stand aside
Darling, it's so plainly true
Even I get lonely too
When my heart is set on you
Love me now or leave me
Blue, blue, blue, blue…
