Dorothy Parker (Дороти Паркер)

Folk Tune

Other lads, their ways are daring:
  Other lads, they're not afraid;
Other lads, they show they're caring;
  Other lads--they know a maid.
Wiser Jock than ever you were,
  Will's with gayer spirit blest,
Robin's kindlier and truer,--
  Why should I love you the best?

Other lads, their eyes are bolder.
  Young they are, and strong and slim,
Ned is straight and broad of shoulder,
  Donald has a way with him.
David stands a head above you,
  Dick's as brave as Lancelot,--
Why, ah why, then, should I love you?
  Naturally, I do not.
