They flatter’d, they promis’d, they pledg’d, and intreated,
The Whigs to let Sutton the turn-coat be seated,
But brave Abercrombie their forces defeated,
In spite of all Bobby could say.
Chorus.—So it’s Oh dear, &c.
Though Francis was absent, and Stanley was praising
The Tories, whose Gridiron was fearfully blazing,
Yet brave Abercrombie with prowess amazing,
Soon drove them all out of his way.
Chorus.—So it’s Oh dear, &c.
