"I ain't very pertic'lar who it is!
Ran dan row de dow, on we go!" _Chorus_.--Ran, dan, etc. III Ve collar'd the blunt, started off for town, [3] With the dashy, splashy, leary little stringer, Horses knock'd up, men knock'd down-- Phililoo! A lady's carriage we next espied, I collar'd the blunt, Jack jumped inside, Ran dan row de dow, on we go! _Chorus_.--Ran, dan, etc. IV 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] |
