THE GAVOTTE.
SONG.—Signor O'Diddle.
Hop, skip, jump,
So very merry, hey down derry;
Young hearts thump,
To tie the nuptial knot.
Then gladly prancing,
I cut to measures cheery,
Still lightly dancing
The gay gavotte.
Very merry, brisk as perry,
Hop, skip, jump.
So very merry, hey down derry;
Young hearts thump,
To tie the nuptial knot.
Then gladly prancing,
I cut to measures cheery,
Still lightly dancing
The gay gavotte.
Very merry, brisk as perry,
Hop, skip, jump.

Hop, skip, jump,
Till we are very red as cherry,
Bumpkins stump,
Like Vestris and what not.
At lasses glancing,
From County Kerry, brown as berry,
Their love advancing,
In the gay gavotte.
Very merry, hey down derry,
Hop, skip, jump.
Till we are very red as cherry,
Bumpkins stump,
Like Vestris and what not.
At lasses glancing,
From County Kerry, brown as berry,
Their love advancing,
In the gay gavotte.
Very merry, hey down derry,
Hop, skip, jump.
