He’s a smart little fellow about ten feet high,

With a monstrous donkey-like head.

He escaped from St. Pancras churchyard I hear,

Not liking the company he had got there,

He stalks out at night just to take the fresh air,

And get a drop for to moisten his clay;

He is not at all quarrelsome you must allow

For the devil a word does he speak,

But when he is tired his Ghostship I vow

In a jiffey he beats a retreat.
