What more diveration can a man desire,
|

Than to sit him by an alehouse fire,
|

Upon his knee a pritty wench,

|
|
And on the table a jug of punch.

Let the doctors come with all their art
|

|
|
They'll make no impression upon me heart
|

If I get drunk, well, me money's me own,

And them don't like me, they can leave me alone;

With a jug of punch at me head and feet.
