I brought thee a gun, and a pistol,

And borrowed a couple of pound,

Then exit, and cheerfully whistle

In time to my heart's happy bound.

I thought thee a regular "trimmer,"

I thought thee a generous man;

I drank to thy health in a brimmer,

And pretty nigh emptied the can.

I went with a mob "to do evil,"

I laughed, and I danced, and I sang;
