  1. (continued from previous page)
    When he put the bob in my fist I began to grumble
    And he told me I was listed by him (the laws you make)
    I beg your pardon this is how It happened
    Shipping the shilling into his fist in spite of him (then he was listed)
    He counted out one & one and then he was free
    Now this will do for me as well as you and counted out £1-1 to him
    And I can go home to my father
