A New SONG, CALLD The Bakers Frollick, OR Jenny the Town Jilt. Licensed according to Order. Tune of, The Orange.
|
I.
|
ILe Sing you a Song and a true one indeed,
|
Of two loving Brothers that were in great need,
|
They were Brothers by Trade and likewise a kin,
|
And they would needs go to the sport In and In
|
Of a Sunday.
|
II.
|
Perhaps you will ask what I mean by this sport,
|
Tis a Game that is usd both in City and Court,
|
But now Ile come nearer because you shant miss,
|
They wanted a couple of Girls for to kiss
|
Of a Sunday.
|
III.
|
And as for their Trade it begins wit a B,
|
They deal all with Women as oft you may see,
|
The one dwells at Wapping and very well known,
|
The other near Fleetstreet but seldome at home
|
Of a Sunday.
|
IV.
|
Their Wives in the Country were gone for the Aire,
|
The Men (in the good Womens absence I hear)
|
Did send for two others to serve in their room,
|
But Trading being quick they could get but one
|
Of a Sunday.
|
V.
|
At this the two Brothers lookt wonderous sad,
|
I thought in my Conscience they would a gon mad,
|
And the London Town Jilt perceiving them dull,
|
Began for to hug, and to kiss, and to pull
|
Of a Sunday.
|
Pray Gentleman Bakers you need not to fear
|
The want of your Sport while that Jenny is here,
|
For tho theres but one to hold out with you two,
|
Yet work you will find more than both you can do
|
Of a Sunday.
|
VII.
|
Says one to the other what must be done now,
|
Wel all lye together, cryes tother, I vow,
|
And Jenny ith middle shall lye by our side,
|
Whilst we take our turn for each other to Ride
|
Of a Sunday.
|
VIII.
|
Then Jenny was glad to hear the match made,
|
(For she was as ready as they in the Trade)
|
And told them some Mony she wanted for luck
|
If they did expect that she must with them work
|
Of a Sunday.
|
IX.
|
Then straight they agreed & to Bed went together,
|
Their Sport it was warm as likewise the weather,
|
And by putting the Fuel so oft to the Spot,
|
Their Oven with using at last provd too hot
|
Of a Sunday.
|
X.
|
The Night past away and business was done,
|
Then some were for rising, nay every one,
|
But Jenny so nimble her Cloaths to put on,
|
Cryd farewell my Loves, but their Money was gone
|
Of a Sunday.
|
XI.
|
I cannot but think how their Wives will complain,
|
When home they do come to their Husbands again,
|
And thinking to have their wonted desire,
|
Theyl find the mistake by a great loss by fire
|
Of a Sunday.
|
XII.
|
You Married Wives all that have Husbands like these,
|
Take care how you leave em alone at their ease,
|
Or theyl not forsake it tis forty to one,
|
Unless that you keep with your Husbands at home
|
Of a Sunday.
