- Song sung on occasion of wedding by men looking for money"God save all here, tis myself that glad
That I haven't quite missed the spree
I own and confess that I am might glad
To meet with good company.
Twas once I was rich, but now I am poor
And my word is as good as law
But now I look strange and my rhyme tis changed
To poor Bandbeggars dressed in Straw.A toast I will drink to this happy pair
May they never be married again.
May they live all their life in comfort and strife
and the children will say Amen
May they prosper and trive every day they rise
May they always have cash to draw
And plenty to spend among you and all men
And poor Bandbeggards dressed in Straw- Collector
