SONG (7) by ROYALL TYLER

First Line: OUR OLD MOLL HAS GOT A TRICK
Last Line: HAND A MUG OF FOAMING FLIP.
Subject(s): ALCOHOLISM & ALCOHOLICS; BEER; DRINKS & DRINKING; ALE; WINE;
OUR old Moll has got a trick
Working always makes her sick
Play the Jade a jigish tune
And sh'll frisk round like Jumping Joan
Some may boast of Beer and Wine
Sling, Grog, Punch and ale so fine
But to make a Cobler skip
Hand a Mug of foaming Flip.
