*til thou bless me,
I will not let thee go.
Wrestling Jacob, Jacob,
day is a-breaking,
Wrestling Jacob, Jacob,
I will not let thee go.
I'll hold thee till the break of day,
I will not let thee go,
Until thou tell me what's thy name,
I will not let thee go.
(Or this.)
I'll wrestle till the break of day,
I will not let thee go,
Until thou come and bless my soul,
I will not let thee go.
