1. Madam, I have come a-courting,
Your affections for to gain,
If you'll kindly entertain me,
Sunday night I'll call again,
CHORUS: Rammel-a-do, do dum do dum,
Rammel-a-do, do dum day.
Rammel-a-do, do dum do dum,
Rammel-a-do, do dum day.
Yes kind sir, you've come a-courting
My affections for to gain,
And I'll kindly entertain you,
If you'll never call again.
CHORUS: Rammel-a-do, do dum do dum,
Rammel-a-do, do dum day.
Rammel-a-do, do dum do dum,
Rammel-a-do, do dum day.
