When the wind is in the south, It blows the bait in the fishes' mouth; When the wind is in the west, Then 'tis at the very best.
 W
HEN I was a batchelor, I lived by myself, And all the bread and cheese I got, I put upon the shelf. The rats and the mice they made such a strife, I was forced to go to London to buy me a wife : The roads were so bad, and the lanes were so
narrow, I was forced to bring my wife home in a wheelÂbarrow. The wheel-barrow broke, and my wife had a fall, Down came wheel-barrow, wife and all. |
