   Ye lasses and bucks, leave off your sly looks,
   While I tell you of one Thady O'Brady;
   Who courted Miss Reilly, so smug and so slyly,
   Determined to make her his lady.
   But before he'd begin to commit that great sin,
   Which the clergy they call matrimony;
   He's furniture all he would tell at one call,
   That he'd give to his own darling honey.

   First a nate little bed and a four posted stead,
   A bolster quilt, blankets and sheets too;
   A straw curtain, one side to the rafters well tied,
   And a purty dale board at our feet too.
   In one corner some meal, in another a pail
   Of sweet milk and roll'd butter hard by it;
   Some salt in a barrel and for fear we should quarrel,
   Some whisky to keep us both quiet

   Four knives and four forks, four bottles and corks,
   Salt butter a store, and salt herrings galore;
   With good praties as much as she wishes
