lyrics

Ivy is the best of trees, Come, bear thy berries.
She's the tree that doth men please, Come, bear thy berries.
She's worth more than all the town, Gold, jewels or king's crown,
Still more without a gown, Come, bear thy berries.

Ivy is the best of trees, Come, bear thy berries.
She's the tree that doth men please, Come, bear thy berries.
She is kind and soft of speech, Love's language she doth teach,
To him who can them reach, come, bear thy berries.

Ivy is the best of trees, Come, bear thy berries.
She's the tree that doth men please, Come, bear thy berries.
Evergreen and always young, Smooth joys are round her hung,
I'd prove what I have sung, Come, bear thy berries.

Ivy is the best of trees, Come, bear thy berries.
She's the tree that doth men please, Come, bear thy berries.
She has berries brown or black, They show where there's no lack,
Bear them, and hold not back, Come, bear thy berries.
