Rhymes of Northern Bards / Being a Curious Collection of Old and New Songs and Poems, Peculiar to the Counties of Newcastle upon Tyne, Northumberland, and Durham

by Unknown

And the wanton lasses of Sedgfield

Are roaring company.

Come, landlady, fill us a bumper,

And take no thought for the shot,

It’s a sin, as I hope to be saved,

To part with an empty pot;

Let the glass go merrily round,

Our business is jolly to be,

And the wanton lasses of Sedgfield

Are roaring company.
