Chorus.—O mount and go, mount and make you ready,

O mount and go, and be the Captain's lady.

When the drums do beat, and the cannons rattle,

Thou shalt sit in state, and see thy love in battle:

When the drums do beat, and the cannons rattle,

Thou shalt sit in state, and see thy love in battle.

O mount and go, &c.

When the vanquish'd foe sues for peace and quiet,

To the shades we'll go, and in love enjoy it:

When the vanquish'd foe sues for peace and quiet,

To the shades we'll go, and in love enjoy it.

O mount and go, &c.
