Lyrics

But to hear the children mutter
When they lost their toast and butter
And to see my lady moan
Oh! Twould melt a heart of stone
Here the squire with servants wrangling
There the maids and mistress jangling
And the pretty hungry dears
All together by the ears
Scrambling for a barley cake
Oh! Twould make one's heart to ake.
Written by: John Frederick Lampe
