   Tis many a race I saw him run - with Bill he used compete

   They say he isn't steady for he makes a fearful dash

   He says to Bill he'll run no more, for now he's got the cash.

   
   (IX)

   If you chance then for to see them with their weekly sum

   Right towards the public houses straight the most of them do run

   To quench their thirst and drink a health and spare a bob for rent

   And buy some groceries at the cost from the English government.

   
   (X)

   It's a boon to all those people to receive that five bob coin

   Moreover to O'Donnell, Daneen Connor and Batt Lyne

   There is Bryan and Kitty Simon and old Mary most in need

   They're afraid they wont live long enough to received that cash indeed

   
   (XI)

   Dan Cronin and ould Dáithín, they are getting it for sure,

   Likewise the tailor Culloty and the butcher, old Pat Moore.

   He can add his weekly pension now to what he's got in bank.
