when i was one and twenty i heard a wise man say
give crowns and pounds and guineas
but not your heart away
give pearls away and rubies
but keep ur fancy free
but i was one and twenty
no use to talk to me
when i was one and twenty
i heard him say again
the heart of the bosom
was never given in vain
tis paid with sighs a plenty
and sold for endless rue
and i am two and twenty
and oh tis tru tis tru
...A.E. HOUSTON
ty barmandon u made me think of this oldie but goodie poem
