 :::Oh! then must he,


 * From prison free,


 * March out by moonlight cheerily.

There was an old woman.

There was an old woman in our town,

In our town did dwell,

She lov’d her husband dearly,

But another man twice as well.

She went unto the Doctor’s,

To see what she could find,

To see if she could get any thing,

To drive her husband blind.


 * Sing whack, fal lal &c.

It’s you must get some marrow-bones,

And make him suck them all,

Your husband then will grow so blind.

He can't see you at all.


 * Sing whack, &c.

O then she got some marrow-bones

And made him suck them all,

The old man then he grew so blind.

He could not see at all.


 * Sing whack, &c.
