There's a jolly lot of laughter If you gaw inter the barn, They're playin' there und actin' An owld an' merry yarn. A big mun loves a woman Whom a fool loves an' nan dafter, An' the big mun tricks the fool aht, An' the audience rack wi' laughter. Yar go in an' yar watch it An' may yar laugh ter see; But oi will wark the lang road, It's a bit too true for me.
