Good morrow, Gossip Joan, Where have you been a walking? I have for you at Home A Budget full of Talking, Gossip Joan. My Sparrow’s flown away And will no more come to me; I’ve broke a Glass to Day, The Price will quite undo me, Gossip Joan. I’ve lost a Harry Groat, Was left me by my Granny; I cannot find it out, I’ve searched in every Cranny, Gossip Joan. My Pocket is cut off, That was full of Sugar-candy; I cannot stop my Cough, Without a Gill of Brandy, Gossip Joan. Let’s to the Ale-house go, And wash down all our Sorrow; My Griefs you there shall know, And we’ll meet again tomorrow, Gossip Joan.
