Old Song (continued)
“There was a man and a silly old man as I heard people say”
(continued from previous page)This old man he swore
By the sun and the moon
And the green leaves on the tree
If his wife sh'd do no more work in her life
She couldn't be blamed by he.Old Song
“I cut my stick and I greased my brogues”
