One limpin Jimmy wed a lass	A
An this wor th' way it coom to pass	A
He'd saved a little bit o' brass	A
An soa he thowt he'd ventur	B
To tak unto hissen a wife	C
To ease his mind ov all its strife	C
An be his comfort all throo life	C
An pray what should prevent her	B
	-
Awve brass enuff he sed for two	D
An noa wark at awm foorced to do	D
But all th' day long can bill an coo	D
Just like a little pigeon	E
Aw nivver have a druffen rant	F
Aw nivver praich teetotal cant	F
Aw nivver booast at awm a saint	G
I' matters o' religion	E
	-
Then with a gradely chap like me	H
A lass can live mooast happily	H
An awl let all awr neighbors see	H
We'll live withaat a wrangle	I
For if two fowk just have a mind	J
To be to one another kind	J
They each may be as easy twined	J
As th' hannel ov a mangle	I
	-
For love's moor paar nor oaths an blows	K
An kind words ivverybody knows	K
Saves monny a hundred thaasand rows	K
An soa we'll start wi kindness	L
For if a chap thinks he can win	M
Love or respect wi oaths an din	M
He'll surely find he's been let in	M
An sarved reight for his blindness	L
	-
Soa Jimmy went to tell his tale	N
To a young lass called Sally Swale	N
An just for fear his heart should fail	N
He gate a drop o' whiskey	H
Net mich but just enuff yo see	H
To put a spark into his e'e	H
An mak his tongue a trifle free	H
An mak him strong an frisky	H
	-
Young Sally shoo wor varry shy	O
An when he'd done shoo breathed a sigh	O
An then began to sob an cry	O
As if her heart wor brokken	M
Nay Sally lass pray what's amiss	P
He sed an gave a lovin kiss	P
If awd expected owt like this	P
Awm sewer awd ne'er ha spokken	M
	-
At last shoo dried her bonny een	M
An felt as praad as if a queen	M
An nivver king has ivver been	M
One hawf as praad as Jimmy	H
An soa they made all matters sweet	Q
An one day quietly stroll'd up th' street	Q
Till th' owd church door coom into seet	Q
Says Jim Come lass goa wi me	H
	-
Then wed they wor an off they went	Q
To start ther life ov sweet content	Q
An Sally ax'd him whear he meant	Q
Ther honey mooin to spend at	Q
Says Jim We're best at hooam aw think	R
We've lots o' stuff to ait an drink	R
But Sally gave a knowin wink	R
An sed Nay awl net stand that	Q
	-
Tha needn't think aw meean to be	H
Shut up like in a nunnery	H
Awm fond o' life an love a spree	H
As weel as onny other	B
Tha cannot goa sed Jim that's flat	Q
But goa aw shall awl tell thee that	Q
What wod ta have a woman at	Q
Shame on thee for sich bother	B
	-
Jim scrat his heead Nah lass sed he	H
One on us mun a maister be	H
Or else we'st allus disagree	H
An nivver live contented	Q
Sed Sal Awd ne'er a maister yet	Q
An if tha thowt a slave to get	Q
Tha'll find thisen mista'en awl bet	Q
Awm sewer aw nivver meant it	Q
	-
Jim tried his best to change her mind	Q
But mud as weel ha saved his wind	Q
An soa to prove he worn't unkind	Q
He gave in just to pleeas her	B
He's allus follow'd th' plan sin then	M
To help her just to pleeas hersen	M
An nah he says They're fooilish men	M
At wed a wife to teeas her	B
