Oh! thik Gammony Gaÿ is so droll,

That if he's at hwome by the he'th,

Or wi' vo'k out o' door, he's the soul

O' the meetèn vor antics an' me'th;

He do cast off the thoughts ov ill luck

As the water's a-shot vrom a duck;

He do zing where his naïghbours would cry

He do laugh where the rest o's would sigh:

Noo other's so merry o' feäce,

In the pleäce, as Gammony Gaÿ.
