On yonder hill there stands a creature
Who she is I do not know
I'll go and court her for her beauty
She must answer yes or no
Oh no, John, no, John, no, John, no!
My father was a Spanish Captain
Went to sea a month ago
First he kissed me, then he left me
Bid me always answer no
Oh no, John, no, John, no, John, no!
Oh madam, in your face is beauty
On your lips red roses grow
Will you take me for your lover?
Madam, answer yes or no
Oh no, John, no, John, no, John, no!
Oh madam, I will give you jewels
I will make you rich and free
I will give you silken dresses
Madam, will you marry me?
Oh no, John, no, John, no, John, no!
Oh madam, since you are so cruel
And that you do scorn me so
If I may not be your lover
Madam will you let me go?
Oh no, John, no, John, no, John, no!
Then I will stay with you forever
If you will not be unkind
Madam, I have vowed to love you
Would you have me change my mind?
Oh no, John, no, John, no, John, no!
Oh madam, I hear churchbells ringing
Will you come and be my wife?
Or dear madam, have you settled
To live single all your life?
Oh no, John, no, John, no, John
Oh no, John, no, John, no, John
Oh no, John, no, John, no, John, no!
