Verse 1
Good people, pay attention to my unhappy lot,
I once was a good fellow, I loved my pipe and pot;
How I did rant and roar,
Till I'd spent all my store!
When I'd spent all I had, I then could spend no more.
Verse 2
My wife a few relations had, and money they did raise,
They begged me both night and day to leave my wicked ways;
But being all in vain,
I turned back again,
Thieving, roaring, drinking, swearing, and so I did remain.
Verse 3
Now hanged I must be all on this gallows tree,
You married men and bachelors, a warning take by me.
