*****
Me sheeps have strayed into pinfold
And now the pinder wants paid
Me pockets turned out
Left him no doubt
There’d be mutton for dinner today
I asked what else could dissuade him
A note or an I.O.U.
He said with a shout
“Get yer’ fiddle out”
“And play us a tune or two”
I sang a song of merry old stooges
And tom-toms played on the moon
Like tile rearranged
A free man’s loose change
An a bell, quite peachie
