Full Lyrics
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 Sugarcandy;
I cannot stop my Cough,
Without a Gill of Brandy,
Gossip Joan.
Let’s to the Alehouse go,
And wash down all our Sorrow;
My Griefs you there shall know,
And we’ll meet again tomorrow,
Gossip Joan.
