 The whimsical frights they have got

when close to your sides they will tend,

They'll make you a fool or a sot

when your galloping's all at an end.

But we that are merry and free,

carouse and merrily sing;

We will spend three shillings for one,

and drink a good health to the King:

For we have no wives that will scold,

we can both borrow and lend;

Then we will live batchelors till we are old,

and our galloping never shall end.
