Miss, I Cannot Sit Astride the Fence to Watch You Pass Along

Miss
I cannot sit astride the fence
To watch you pass along.
It might work well in summer time,
But winter spoils the song.
Please will you let me see you home,
From church next Sunday night?
Don't mind what other people say,
Perchance you think it right.
