SONG LIII. ROUNDLEGS.
Roundlegs to Wadsley went,
With burying cakes he was sent,
Fol, lol. lol, la.
With burying cakes he was sent,
Fol, lol. lol, la.
Roundlegs tumbled o'er a wall,
Let all his spice cakes fall,
Fol.
Let all his spice cakes fall,
Fol.
Roundlegs turned his mule i'th park,
He then made some nasty wark,
Fol.
He then made some nasty wark,
Fol.
Roundlegs next went to the wheel.
To watch them polish steel,
Fol.
To watch them polish steel,
Fol.
Roundlegs was a cunning old toad,
Made three mules carry four-horse load,
Fol.
Made three mules carry four-horse load,
Fol.
Roundlegs went to Joel Rose's door,
(He had ne'er been there before,)
Fol.
(He had ne'er been there before,)
Fol.
“Does any dead folks live near,
George Pearce has sent me here,”
Fol.
George Pearce has sent me here,”
Fol.

Roundlegs was a famous glutton,
Once he ate a leg of mutton,
Fol.
Once he ate a leg of mutton,
Fol.
Roundlegs put a chalk o'er't door,
Then swore he would go there no more,
Fol.
Then swore he would go there no more,
Fol.
Roundlegs shall be buried i'th fold,
When he's dead and his a---e is cold.
Fol, lol, lol, la.
When he's dead and his a---e is cold.
Fol, lol, lol, la.
