Sensible Man: Companion To The Charming Woman & Fanny Grey, Sensible Man: Companion To The Charming Woman & Fanny Grey

Historic Sheet Music Collection

The Colonel has married Miss Fanny
And quitted the turf and high play
They've gone down to live with her granny
In a sober and rational way
Folks in town were all perfectly scar'd
When they heard of the sensible plan
For nobody there could believe the Colonel a sensible man

For Fanny two years he'd been sighing
And Fanny continued stone cold
Till he made her believe he was dying
And Fan thought herself growing old
So one very fine night at a fete
When the moon shone as bright as it can
She found herself left tete a …

Flirtation: Answer To Fanny Grey, Flirtation: Answer To Fanny Grey

Historic Sheet Music Collection

You all have heard how Mister Charles left Jane for Fanny Grey
And tho' we think it very odd it happens ev'ry day
A Lady flirt is bad enough
But oh there's something yet is worse you'll say
I'll tell you what it is a male coquet
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Now Jane was not the girl he thought her turn was yet to come
"When Mr. Charles Tod calls again John say I'm not at home"
Next day came out - eloped they say ('twas in the morning post)
The heiress and coquette Miss …

Sister's Call, U. C. Hill

Historic Sheet Music Collection

A voice from the spirit land,
A voice from the silent tomb,
Entreats with a sweet command
Brother come home
List! List! 'Tis a sister gone;
Unseen yet where e'er I roam,
She calls from her starlit throne
Brother(s) come home! Brother(s) come home!

2
At eve, when the crimson west,
Is dye'd by the setting sun,
She calls like a spirit blest,
Brother come Home!
Abroad in the stilly night,
A stranger, and all alone,
I hear through the misty light
Brother come home!

3
In dreams of the midnight deep,
When angels of mercy come
I startle to …

The Dream Is Past, Stephen Glover, Edward Fitz Auburn

Historic Sheet Music Collection

The dream is past, and with it fled,
The hopes that once my passion fed;
And darkly die, mid grief and pain,
The joys which gone come not again.
My soul, in silence and in tears
Has cherish'd now for many years;
A love for one, who does not know
The thoughts that in my bosom glow.
Oh! cease my heart, thy throbbing hide
Another soon will be his bride;
And hopes last faint but cheering ray,
Will then forever pass away.

They cannot see the silent tear
That falls uncheck'd when none are near;
Nor do they mark the …

Away Then To The Mountains, William Michael Rooke, John H. Hewitt

Historic Sheet Music Collection

The hunter dreads no danger,
While a long the steep locks wending;
From youth a mountain ranger,
With the wind and snow contending.
From the peak he looks on the valley brooks,
While his heart for home is bounding;
And he marks the maid on the valley glade,
Who lists to his wild horn sounding.
way then to the &c, &c.

The way then to the mountains,
While the morning sun is shining;
The mist has left the fountain,
And the herds in shade are reclining.
Up the rocks we'll climb to the top sublime,
And we'll watch the light …

Come Gang Awa' Wi' Me, Edwin Ransford

Historic Sheet Music Collection

Oh! come my love, the moon shines bright
Across yon rippling sea,
Come let thy heartbe gay and light,
And hasten love wi' me.
'Tis mony a aight 'sin first we met,
Beneath the greenwod tree,
Then let thy heart be lighter yet,
Come, gang awa' wi' me.
'Tis mony a night sin' first we met,
Beneath the greenwood tree,
Then let thy heart be lighter yet,
Come, gang awa' wi' me.
Oh! tary not, my only love,
I've pledg'd myself to thee;
And by yon stars that shine above,
Forever thine I'll be.
'Tis mony a night sin' first …

Near The Lake Where Drooped The Willow, Charles Edward Horn, George Pope Morris

Historic Sheet Music Collection

Near the lake where droop'd the willow,
Long time ago!
Where the rock threw back the billow,
Brighter than snow;
Dwelt a maid, beloved and cherish'd,
By high and low;
But, with autumn's leaf, she perish'd,
Long time ago!

Rock, and tree, and flowing water,
Long time ago!
Bird, and bee, and blossom taught her,
Love's spell to know!
While to my fond words she listen'd,
Murmuring low,
Tenderly her dove eyes glisten'd,
Long time ago!

Mingles were our hearts forever!
Long time ago!
Can I now forget her? never!
No, lost one, no!
To her grave these tears are …
