Said, “I have all my money spent
On good living and young women
And now my hair is thinning.

When A Young Lady Of A Philosophical Bent

Invited me into her leaky old tent,
And she said, “men are full of lust,
And we are all but whirling dust”.
I said, “you should fix this leaking tent!”.

When Visiting My Friend The Squire
When visiting my friend the squire
I met a young housemaid named Moriah.
Who was in a state of undress

Had nothing to do with the squire!
When A Young Lady Named Jane
When a young lady named Jane
Said, “you ought to die of shame,
Inviting young women in at long gone midnight,
Then, seeing them off by late morning’s light!”,

Elastic
When a young lady with morals most elastic
Said, “it would be absolutely fantastic
If you could pay my expenses.
Let us have no more pretences!”,
I said, “my finances are not that elastic!”.
