THE BUCKINGHAM CHEQUE.
By Mr Alexander Wilson.
77
You 've heard of Billy Hogarth, whose paintings are sublime;
One story in his picture I 've just turn'd into rhyme.
One story in his picture I 've just turn'd into rhyme.
Chorus.
Then a-sawing we will go, we 'll go,A-sawing we will go;
We 'll cut the beam whereon we stand,
And break our necks below.
