This song was written by Silly Wizard's Andy M. Stewart but the version I play is based on a recording with some lyric changes by the band Empty Hats. It's one of the first Ren Faire tunes I ever learned and it's still a lot of fun to play!

𝓣𝓪𝓴𝓮 𝓗𝓮𝓻 𝓲𝓷 𝓨𝓸𝓾𝓻 𝓐𝓻𝓶𝓼 (Andy M. Stewart, arranged by Empty Hats)
Have you seen him on the corner? His lip would reach the pavement.
He's been hidin' from his razor; is he not an awful sight?
In love he was the purest, now he's frightenin’ our tourists.
If he'd only asked his father, oh, I'm sure he'd set him right!
Take her in your arms, and tell her that you love her!
Take her in your arms, and hold that woman tight!
Take her in your arms, and tell her that you love her!
If you're going to love a woman then be sure and do it right!
Well, he met her at some tavern, which was dark as any cavern.
And it might have all been different had he seen her in daylight.
She was painted, she was scented, but she drove your man demented.
If he'd only asked his father, oh, I'm sure he'd set him right!
Take her in your arms. . .
Now, depression's not a million laughs, but suicide's too dangerous!
Don't go leapin' out of buildings in the middle of the night!
It's not the fall, but landin', that'll alter social standin';
So go first and ask your father and I'm sure he'll set you right!
Take her in your arms. . .
Here’s a health to all true lovers, their sisters and their brothers,
Their uncles and their grannies, for this thing is black-and-white:
If you're keen to start romancin', with it's leapin' and its' dancin',
Go first and ask your father, and I'm sure he'll set you right!
Take her in your arms. . .
