Full Lyrics
A Ditty on a high amour at St. James's
Set to a comical tune.
Great Lord Frog to Lady Mouse
Croakledom hee Croakledom ho;
Dwelling near Saint James' House,
Cocky mi Chari she;
Rode to make his Court one day,
In the merry Month of May,
When the Sun Shon bright and gay,
Twiddle come Tweedle twee.
Lord Frog:
Sing I can’t, my Voice is low
Croakledom hee Croakledom ho;
But for Dancing dare Santlow,
Cocky mi Chari she:
Than altho' my Bum be bare,
All must own ’tis smooth and fair;
I've no Scars of Venus there,
Twiddle come Tweedle twee.
Lady Mouse:
When we treat you at our Cheese,
Croakledom hee Croakledom ho;
All that naked part one sees,
Cocky mi Chari me:
Cover'd clofe we creep and crawl,
When you swim or diving fall:
Fy for shame, you shew us all,
Twiddle come Tweedle twee.
Lord Frog:
Since y' are on these lofty strains,
Croakledom hee Croakledom ho;
I'll get one shall value brains,
Cocky mi Chari she;
Lady Mouse:
Now your Lordhship idle prates,
Those that will have constant mates;
Must have Tails as well as Pates,
Twiddle come Tweedle twee.
