Now there they did stay the whole of the day,
And tired the Fiddler quite,
With singing and playing, without any paying,
From morning until night.

They told the Fiddler then,
they’d pay him for his play,

And each a 2-pence, 2-pence, 2-pence,
gave him and went away.

“Good-night,” says Harry; “Good-night,” says Mary;
“Good-night,” says Dolly to John;”
“Good-night,” says Sue, to her sweetheart Hugh,
“Good-night,” says everyone.
