And on with your clothes!” For the chaps was bare
To the very buff—aw, 'deed they were!
And the moonlight shinin' on their skin—

And on with your clothes!” For the chaps was bare
To the very buff—aw, 'deed they were!
And the moonlight shinin' on their skin—
These naked divils—astonishin'!
“On with your boots and your clothes!” Aw, the one of them

Fuss-rate, I tell ye, uncommon though!
They were both that wake and 'zausted, ye know;
And had to give in.
