He’s tir’d of a dull single life,
He’ll not die an old bachelor,
If he can get a young wife.
THE
WHIRLIGIG WORLD.
This song is the joint production of Col. Kirkpatrick and Mr. Hewerdine.
A fig for the cares of this Whirligig World,
Shall still be my maxim wherever I’m twirl’d;
From the spring of my youth, to the autumn of life,
It has cheer’d me and whisk’d me through trouble and strife.
