I Am a brisk Gallant, all this I can tell, I make use of my Wits, and I live very well; I Court up young Wenches, and tell them a fair tale, And to give me Money they never do fail: There's ne'r a Free-holder in England doth dwell, That doth live better than I do with my Girl. I hugg them and kiss them both Evening and Morn, Mall's as good a Wench as ever was born; She takes it so kindly, and thinks in no scorn, When I play with her Mouse-trap & do her a good turn There's never, etc. Besides there is Dolly, she's as right as my Legg, Before I shall want she swears she will begg; She gave me five Guinnies to come to her Bed, What need I to work more, or trouble my head? There's never, etc.
There is Betty I swear, for all she looks so sower, When she sees my face she swears she has no power; But we must into the Chamber for one half hour, Then she'l furnish my Pocket again with some Lower: There's never, etc. There is bonny Kate with her rowling eye, If I stay long away she is ready to cry; And when I do come, she will lay all work by, And Clip me and Kiss me, and then who but I? There's never, etc. There is whining Jane for all she looks so thin, Is as good as the rest for to play a fresh Game: And I must be brisk with her when I do begin, Then Money comes into my Pockets agen: There's ne'r a Free-holder in England doth dwell, That does live better than I do with my Girl.
<seg n="1" rend="left"><hi rend="italic">The seoond part, to the same Tune.</hi></seg>
ANd Sarah the Lace-maker, she is compleat, She sets Meat before me as long as I'de eat, But before I do go I must needs do the Feat, And shew my self loving, I am pay'd well for that: There's ne'r, etc, And Bridget is as willing as any Girl in the Town, Let me come when I will, she will give me a Crown; Then her Mag-pye is Wanton, and we must lie down, There's no cloaths wears better then a new green gown There's ne'r, etc. And little short Hannah must not be forgot, She'l sport and she'l play with the thing you know what She'l hold up her Cunny-Ball and cling to the full, Then she'l give me Money, is not this a good Girl? There's ne'r, etc. And thus you may see what a Trade I have got, I have Money in my pocket, & brave cloths to my back I go like a Lord in a Coach every day, I need not fear wanting, my Girls they will pay: There's ne'r, etc. The times they be hard, and I must use my Art, At every turn I must have a Sweet-heart; I pleasure their humours as right as a hair, Then I cannot want Money there is no great fear: There's ne'r, etc. I had best to conclude, and not speak too long, Lest any young Maid should chance for to long; But yet there is help enough to be found, Unless that young-men they be high bound: There's ne'r a Free-holder in England doth dwell, That does live better then I do with my Girl.
