'TIS NOT YOUR GOLD WOULD ME ENTICE. Irish, Air (4/4 time). E Minor (G Major). Standard tuning (fiddle). One part. Joyce printed one verse only of the song (which for most of the tune meanders in minor mode, resolving to the relative major at the cadence):

'Tis not your gold would me entice
To marry you against my friends’ advice;
And I never do intend at all
To be away from my mother’s call;
And I never do intend at all
To be away from my mother’s call!

The song cannot be located prior to Joyce's 1873 collection save for Boston publisher Elias Howe's publication, indicating perhaps that the heretofore approximate dating of the latter should be from a later date.
