THere is a Holy Father, whom we are bound to Curse, And for his evil Stratagems, we all shall fair the worse. For a wandring we must go, must go, must go, And a wandring we must go, So Zealous in his Knavery, he turn'd the State about; Would t'other turn had broak his Neck since we are all turn'd out: And a wandring we must go, etc.
He offer'd up his Prayers, the Virgin Mary smil'd; He pray'd the Blessed Lady, the Queen might have a Child: But a wandring we must go, etc. The Queen she soon Conceiv'd, and at last the happy Hour, It made her speak so loud, the Bishops heard her to the Tower, But a wandring we must go, must go, must go. And a wandring we must go.
Of a Prince she was deliver'd, and as the storys told; The Babe was full as lusty, as a Child a Quarter old: But a wandring we must go, etc. The Tileman's Wife they say, who was well rewarded for't Presented to the Prince a Tile, to make the Child a Cart: But a wandring we must go, etc. The babe was overjoyed, and look't upon the tile; So pleas'd with his Newe Play-thing, it made his Highness smile? And a wandring we must go, etc. How bad is our Condition, now we must leave the Town: And all our Habitations quit, to wander up and down. And a wandring we must go must go, must go, And a wandring we must go.
How wretched is our state, now our Guardian's got a fall: The Devil take our Father Peters, and the Pope and all. For a wandring we must go, etc. Now Popery is trampled down, the Protestants advance, And when the Nation setled, they'l take a touch with France: And a wandring we must go, etc. They've clip't the Wings of popery, it can no longer fly; But now is bound to stand the test, Of Lulla-Babe-by. And a wandring we must go, etc. How blest was our Condition, before we got a fall; But now we are Obliged, to bid adiew to all. And a wandring we must go, must go, must go, And a wandring we must go.
