ATtend young Lasses all of Edenborough Town, I was esteem'd a Beauty late of great renown; But now alas, my Folly has made me melancholly, Since Jockeys gone, and I undone, under what grief I lye, By being wedded unto an Old Man; Twas Father and my Mother did always put me on, Cause he had riches too, but alas that will not do, Oh Jockey, Jockey, Jockey, Jockey, why deny'd I you. I Fifteen years have passed, and kept my Maiden-head, And longer like to keep it although that I am wed, For an old Man girls you know that can scarcely stand or go How should he love and nimbly move alas it can't be so Which makes me all the night sigh and cry, Oh why did I kind Jockey so oftentimes deny, For when that he would do, then did I pish and pooh, Crying cannot, cannot, wonnot, wonnot buckle too. How Jockey kiss'd and hugg'd me upon a Cock of Hay, [A]nd I, like a silly Jade, said take your hand away, [C]rying Jockey fie, O fie, Oh you shannot come so nigh, [Y]ou're like a Devil, much uncivil Ile cry out by'nd by, [H]ad I then known but what I do now, [I]de not a hindred Jockey, O no, not I, I vow, [B]ut would consent to do, without a pish or pooh, [A]nd never, never, never cry'd, I wonnot buckle too.
But now the knot is ty'd to a man of threescore year, Who's snoring all the night while I'm shedding many a tear Welladay how am I sped, and unto an old man wed, Hang melancholly, farewel folly, and my doting Ned. Jockey I will find for he is kind, O what a foolish Girl was I, I was not of his mind, But needs must pish and pooh, and cry it shannot do, O silly, silly silly, fool I did not buckle too. Jockey overheard Jennys Complaint. My fairest Jenny now I love thee muckle more, For sike a bonny Lass Ise never saw before, I did hear thee much complain, and wisht to be loos'd again, Come let us trip it to yon Thicket, where we will remain, And there love imbraces we will taste, Then straight he flung his Arms about her slender waste, Crying, love now we will do now without a pish or pooh, So together, gether, gether went they without more ado. Straight this loving Couple got to the shady Grove, O then how kindly Jenny imbraced Jockeys love, Twas a pleasant Sun-shiny day, when they sat among the Hay Then Jockey kissing, sweetly pressing, Jenny nere said nay, But fetcht her breath short as if she'd dye, So Jockey and kind Jenny most lovingly did lye. She neither pisht nor pooh, but freely buckl'd too, Whilst Jockey, Jockey, Jockey did what he'd a mind to do.
