Tinking Tom was an honest man Tink a tink tink, And a man of bonny mettle; He dext'rously could clink the pan, Clink a clink clink, And stop a hole i' th' kettle. To him did my lady's maid advance "Come in thou man of mettle, A sad mischance, a sad mischance, Here's a hole in my lady's kettle". Tom went hamm'ring on the place And wrought like a man of mettle; But when he had done, 'twas all a case There's a hole in my lady's kettle.
