English poem
Iv
by John Stephen Farmer (1854–1916)
Jack took off his hat, with a jaunty air-- The dashy, splashy, leary little stringer-- And he kiss'd the lips of the lady fair-- Phililoo!
She sigh'd a sigh, and her looks said plain, I don't care much if I'm robb'd again! Ran dan row de dow, on we go! Chorus.--Ran, dan, etc.
[1: spirited horse] [2: wink] [3: money]
