2. Old Song

   “One morning I carelessly rambled...”

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   One morning I carelessly rambled
   In order to meet with some game
   I heard a most curious contention
   Between a farmer & draper by trade

   II
   The farmer he was in a bustle
   Saying ya Cuckle, you fool & you knave
   Why should this lady be for you intended
   To live in a shop poor a bare

   III
   [?] said the draper 'til better to have her be with me
   For I'll dress her in silks & fine shawls
   Then be trudging with you in a farm
   Feeding your pigs & your calves

   V
   Says the farmer I keep beef & bacon
   I have servants to wait at my call
   I have all things on hand for the season
   And plenty of wstock on my farm

   V
   They fought with a pair of Shillelaghs
   'Till both of their weapons broke
   And this lady was still on him gazing
   To know who was best on the stroke

   VI
   They got hold of the waists of their breeches
   And the draper was forced to give o'er
   And the farmer embraced his fair lady
   And immediately made her his own
