Buy a broom, buy a broom, (Spoken) buy a broom,
O buy of the wand'ring Bavarian a broom.
To brush away insects that sometimes annoy you,
You'll find them quite handy by night or by day,
And what better exercise pray can employ you,
Than to sweep all vexatious intruders away.—Buy a broom, &c.
Ere winter comes on for sweet home departing,
My toils for your favour again I'll resume;
And while gratitude's tears in my eye-lids are starting,
Bless the time that in England I cried buy a broom.
