Good Advice - song lyrics 
American Old-time song lyrics from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk 
GOOD ADVICE. Copyright, 1888, by Oliver Ditson & Co. 
Shall I then love him, or shall I leave him, Who has my heart's great happiness made? Ceasing to love him, shall I then bate him? Ceasing to love him, shall I then hate him? Counsel me well, oh, do not dissuade. 
Wild is he truly, hasty in manner, But my devotion to him I have paid; Wild is he truly, hasty in manner, Wild is he truly, hasty in manner; Counsel me well, oh, do not dissuade. 
Let me be cautious, my fate not sadden, Better at once in the grave be laid; May I then ever listen to wisdom? May I then ever listen to wisdom? Counsel me well, oh, do not dissuade.
