A song about doing your best...or is it?

lyrics

A young man and a maid, put in all, put in all
Together lately played, put in all;
The young man was in jest,
The maid she did protest:
She bid him do his best, put in all, put in all.

With that her rolling eyes, put in all, put in all,
Turned upward to the skies, put in all;
My skin is white you see,
My smock above my knee,
What would you more of me, put in all, put in all.

The young maid’s neck and breast, put in all, put in all,
Lie open to his chest, put in all,
The young man was in heat,
The maid was still in need,
A little farther get, put in all, put in all.

When he had ended sport, was that all; was that all?
She found him all too short, was that all?
For when he'd done his best,
The maid she did protest,
‘Twas not a funny jest, that was all, that was all.

Twas not a funny jest, that was ALL, THAT WAS ALL.
