is a proper sort of girl.
Old Brown's daughter is a fair as any pearl
I wish I was a Lord Mayor, a Marquis or and Earl
And blow me if I wouldn't marry old Brown's girl.
Blow me if I wouldn't marry old Brown's girl.

I'm going to the concert on the 10th.

I'm a rover
Seldom sober
I'm a rover
Of high degree
And when I'm drinkin'
I'm always thinkin'
How to gain my true love's company.
