T Herei was a brisk Scotchman as I do understand wth a fa la la falero That lately did gang into fair England , with a fa la la falero, He travelled London Streets from place to plcae to u[t]ter his Scotch-cloth and sell his Bone-lace But at last he came off both with shame and disgrace with a fa la la falero, He no sooner was come to fair London Town with a fa la la la With his Pack at his back he walkt up and, with a fa la la la At last a young Miss in gallant array call'd unto the Scotchmnn and did him to stay And make hast unto her without any delay with a fa la la la lero,
Honest Scotchman come hither then she did cry with a fa la, etc. For I am resolved some Scotch-cloth to buy with a fa la la la falero , If that you will afford a good Penniworth said she Yes marry good Faith that will I said he Your bonny sweet Lass and I hope we shall agree with a fa la la. Then with her the Scotchman did gang it at door with a fa la etc . Not thinking he had been betray'd by a Whore with a fa la etc. Then into a Room his Miss had him straightway where he open'd his Pack without any delay, But before he came off he most dearly did pay with a fa la la etc.
And when she had taken what cloth she did lack with a fa la la la lero. The Scotchman he call'd for a bottle of Sack wi th a fa la la la la la lero. Bonny Lass a good Health to you I will drink with that she cast on him a Smile and a Wink But she made him pay dear enough for his drink With a fa la la la lero. Then he saluted her neatly and close by her sate with a fa la la la Only to obtain what she'd have him be at with a fa la la la, etc. But before they had been together an hour a Pimp with his drawn Sword came in with great power And swore he would kill him or spoil him besure with a fa la la, etc. What now you Scotch-Jockey what do ye do here with a fa la la, etc. You have made a Whore of my Wife I greatly do fear With a fa la, etc. What makes you in this place with my Wife to be a Whore and a Rogue I plainly do see. With this Sword in my Hand both of you shall die With a fa la la, The Queen under a colour did cry out and rore with a fa la etc. Dear Husband forgive me i'le do so no more with a fa la la, etc. The Scotchman upon his Knees pardon did crave marry Sir take my Pack if my Life you will save For I am not willing to go to my grave with a fa la la, etc. Upon this condition I will save thy Life. With a fa la la la, etc. But let me never take you here again with my Wife, with a fa la la, etc. A way then with Speed the poor Scotch-man did go he there left his PACK and was glad he scap'd so For his Heart it was fill'd with sorrow and Woe. with a fa la la la falero. Now to all my Country Scotch Bullies that are with a fa la la la la lero, Of going into Bawdy Houses have a great care with a fa la la la la lero, If everyone for it so dearly should pay You may all take your journey and with me run away For my PACK and Scotch -Cloth went all in one day with a fa la la la la falero.
