When Jack is grog'd, he's ship'd his beer,
Stand clear—make way—mind how you steer;
The lover, he sighs out, my dear!
I'm prim'd without much trouble:
Sometimes disguis'd, and sometimes mellow,
A bosky rocky chearful fellow,
And when I'm muz'd, the truth I tello—
I every thing see double.
Stand clear—make way—mind how you steer;
The lover, he sighs out, my dear!

Sometimes disguis'd, and sometimes mellow,
A bosky rocky chearful fellow,
And when I'm muz'd, the truth I tello—
I every thing see double.
(Speaking).
I went to see my brother Tom yesterday, and I never swore so
well in my life—I swore all my new oaths—it wou'd have done you good
to have heard me swear—So, Tom says, “Brother, brother, what will this
world come to?” Says I, the same place it set out from this day twelve-month.—“These
are very slippery times, very slippery times.”—They are
always so in frosty weather.—“I can't bear to see such times!”—Shut your
eyes then.
Tipsey, dizzy, &c.
