I'll Ask My Mother, and I'll Let You Know Next Snnday Afternoon. 
A pretty little girl came courting me, her name was Sarah Broome, She wanted me to marry her, and thought I was a loon; She said I was a nice young man, and we might be well off soon, But I'll ask my mother, and I'll let you know next Sunday afternoon. 
Chorus. The kindness of this pretty little girl I never can forget, That wanted me to marry her but I cannot see that yet. 
One afternoon Miss Sarah Broome took me out for a walk, She kissed me and caressed me, and so lovingly did talk ; She wanted me to fly with her that night by the light of the moon, But I'll ask my mother, and I'll let you know next Sunday afternoon. The kindness of this pretty little girl, &c. 
She made me a present of a watch and chain, likewise a bran new hat, For Sundays, when I walked with her, that I might cut it fat; [soon, But when she found I would not fly with her, she wanted the presents back But I'll ask my mother, and I'll let you know next Sunday afternoon. The kindness of this pretty little girl, &c. 
If there's any young girl that's here to-night would like to be my wife. Let her step forward, and I'll do the best for her through life; And if she's in a hurry, why, we might be married soon, But I'll ask my mother, and I'll let you know next Sunday afternoon. The kindness of this pretty little girl, &c.
