ROBIN AND BOBBIN.

We will go to the wood,
Says Robin to Bobbin,
we will go to the wood,
Says Richard to Robin;
we will go to the wood,
Says John and alone,
we will go to the wood,
Says every one

We will shoot at a wren,
Says Robin to Bobbin,

We will shoot at a wren,
Says Richard to Robin.
we will shoot, &c.

She is down, she is down,
Says Robin to Bobbin,
She is down, she is down,
Says Richard to Robin.
She is down, &c.

How shall we get her home?
Says Robin to Bobbin,
How shall we get her home?
Says Richard to Robin?
How shall we get, &c.

We will hire a cart.
says Robin to Bobbin,
we will hire a cart,
says Richard to Robin.
we will hire, &c.

Then hoist her, hoist her,
says Robin to Bobbin,
Then hoist her, hoist her,
says Richard to Robin.
Then hoist her, &c.

She is up, she is up,
says Robin to Bobbin,
she is up, she is up,
says Richard to Robin.
she is up, &c.

FINIS.
