Come, my love, and go with me. Ah, my love, I greet thee. Take you down to Tennessee. Meet you by and by.
Don't you hear them hollerin' now. Ah, my love, I need thee. Ain't there goin' to be a row! Meet you by and by.
Get away from that window, my love and my dove. Get away from that window, don't ya hear?
Come some other night for there's gonna be a fight. There'll be razors flyin' through the air.
Pack a poke and come with me. Ah, my love, don't greet me. Shoe your foot in Tennessee. Meet you by and by.
Out that window, sweet and soft. Ah, my, believe me. Hurry love and we'll be off. Meet you by and by.
Get away from that window, my love and my dove. Get away from that window, don't ya hear?
Come some other night for there's gonna be a fight. There'll be razors flyin' through the air.
Someone's slipping down the hall. Hush, my love, be quiet. Don't you make no noise at all. Meet you by and by.
Hear that blind man blow his horn. Goin' to be a riot. All those boys are full of corn. Meet you by and by.
Get away from that window, my love and my dove. Get away from that window, don't ya hear?

0General CommentFirst things first - these lyrics are incomplete. A verse is missing after "Hurry, love and we\'ll be off! (etc.)" and a verse to a verse and a half after "All them boys is full of corn! (etc.)." C.f. fresnostate.edu/folklore/ballads/… - the song apparently derives from a minstrel song circa 1880. The Kingston Trio has successfully made a joyful little number free of any racism in their version. I got their "Goin\' Places" LP in the very early 1960s, and this is one of the songs that sometimes still pops happily into my head.
