Lyrics
I'm a rough edged man a tiller of the land
All I know is to work hard with my hands
But I'm a holding a deep affection for you
Could you find a place in your heart for such a man
Will you take my hand Miss Pauline would you
For all my failings Miss Pauline here I stand
Will you take my hand Miss Pauline could you
And make me the world's happiest man
All I've garnered in this world I will share with you
We will stand together against every coming storm
I know I'm not the best of all that have suited you
MY visage is of a man windblown, darkened and worn
If we should marry I would tend you every need
Ne're raise my voice or treat you unkind
I offer a plain speaking and God fearing man
Poor and wrongful ways I will leave behind
