She's geev him so soon he's come on de door
Du vin de pays, an' some nice galettes,
She's mak' dem herse'f only day before
An' he say "Bigosh! dat is fine girl yet."
So he's try hees chances some more--hooraw!
Julie is not mak' so moche troub' dis tam;
She's forget de poor Jeremie Dandurand
An' tole de Notaire she will be hees famme.

W'en Jeremie come off de wood nex' spring,
An' fin' dat hees girl she was get mariee
Everybody's expec' he will do somet'ing,
But he don't do not'ing at all, dey say;
For he's got 'noder girl on Sainte Dorothee,
Dat he's love long tam, an' she don't say "No,"
So he's forget too all about Julie
An' mak' de mariee wit' hese'f also.
