    “Good night boys good night ¶ I must now have to leave ¶ I must go to the village”

    (continued from previous page)
    And this of him I say
    Many is the time he saluted me
    As I did pass the way.
    Miss Corbet is the barmaid
    God bless her sunny face
    Many's the time she shook hands with me
    And welcomed me to the place
    Our haberdasher apartment
    Lies by the Chapel wall,
    And if you are a business person
    'Tis to his house you'll call
    And if you'll have Christening a wedding or a wake
    Call in to Mrs Sullivans
    You'll make no mistake
    Not to conclude and finish
    I must now terminate.
