Few buy the cow when getting milk for free.
For glance, or words, your worth should not depart.
Lass, be the treasure you were meant to be.
The revolution was a loss, you see;
The marriage age has risen on the chart.
Few by the cow when getting milk for free.
Don't end with babes, alone, in poverty;
To wed, your price, the horse before the cart.
Lass, be the treasure you were meant to be.
Many, in haste, give up their purity;
Tasted, grown stale, discarded like a tart.
Few buy the cow when getting milk for free.
Build forts, post guards, arm the artillery
With knowledge, NO! , for the seducer's art.
Lass, be the treasure you were meant to be.
You're captain of your ship, your destiny;
Don't ruin your life, when young, and break your heart.
Few buy the cow when getting milk for free.
O, Lass!
Lass! Be the treasure you were meant to be!
