The Theme from
Music by Dimitri Tiomkin
A Mickey McBride Arrangement
Male Chorus
THEE I LOVE, MORE THAN THE MEADOWS SO GREEN AND STILL,
MORE THAN THE MULBERRIES ON THE HILL,
MORE THAN THE BUDS ON THE MAY APPLE TREE,
I LOVE THEE,
ARMS HAVE I, STRONG AS THE OAK,
FOR THIS OCCASION,
LIPS HAVE I TO KISS THEE TOO,
IN FRIENDLY PERSUASION,
THEE IS MINE, THOUGH I DON’T KNOW MANY WORDS OF PRAISE,
THEE PLEASURES ME IN A HUNDRED WAYS,
SO PUT ON THY BONNET, THY CAPE, AND THY GLOVE,
AND COME WITH ME, FOR THEE I LOVE,
Female Chorus
THEE I LOVE, MORE THAN THE MEADOWS SO GREEN AND STILL,
MORE THAN THE MULBERRIES ON THE HILL,
MORE THAN THE BUDS ON THE MAY APPLE TREE,
I LOVE THEE,
ARMS HAVE I, EAGER ARE THEY,
FOR THIS OCCASION,
LIPS HAVE I TO KISS THEE TOO,
IN FRIENDLY PERSUASION,
THIS I KNOW, THEE PLEASURES ME IN A WOND’ROUS WAY,
LONG HAVE I WAITED TO HEAR THEE SAY,
“PUT ON THY BONNET, THY CAPE, AND THY GLOVE,
AND COME WITH ME, FOR THEE I LOVE!”
Tag
AND COME WITH ME, FOR THEE I LOVE,
OH, COME WITH ME, FOR THEE I LOVE!
FRIENDLY PERSUASION
(THEE I LOVE)
