Then away to the church we will walk with an air,
Kind Hymen proclaim us to be the happy pair,
Her bosom I will press, and her chains I will wear,
Down amongst the bonny beds of Roses.
As I was a walking one morning in the Spring,
The Winter going out and the Summer coming in,
The cuckow sang cuckow, you're welcome here again
And I pray you stay among the green bushes.
TEA and BRANDY.
YOU young men all both far and near,
Listen a while and you shall hear,
Take care you ben't drawn in a snare,
By the girls that love Brandy.Fal lal, &c.
Tittle-tattle, now goes about,
When the first joram is drunk out,
The landlord nimbly jumps about,
And in both hands brings Brandy.Fal lal, &c.
The table laid, the cloth is spread,
Says yellow Moll as I'm a maid,
Fain would I kiss, but I'm afraid,
My spark shall smell the Brandy. Fal lal, Ecc,
The landlord he makes this reply,
'Tis on your backs.you girls must ly,
Pray which of these will you deny,
A dish of Tea or Brandy. Fal lal, &c.
The girls spoke up with a hearty voice,
To have them both it is our choice,
'Twill make a fair maid's hcart rejoice,
To drink both Tea and Brandy. Fal lal, &c.
If there's an ale-house in the town,
We'll pawn our smock also our gown,
And ten times more we will lay down,
But we'll have Tea and Brandy. Fal lal, &c.
