LEt the Cinick Zealots , Impose on Dull Sots , Rub Brethrens Gumbs with false Corals , Let the Dull Bearded Crowd , Insult and grow proud , And Preach up their Wheedling Morals : Let the Grave Block-heads sit , Muster up all their Wit , To Poach on the Sniveling Sister ; Whilst that Stout Hectors we Do court , the jolly she That with fiery sparkling Carbuncle do's glister . Cho . Let Bumpers go round , Let Bumpers go round , Whilst thus double armed we stand to our ground , And the dull Rogue that dare , Bawk his Liquor and spare ; Kick him out , Kick him out , Whilst Bumpers go round . Let the Rascals declaim , Shew the gay punks their shame Cry down their Paint & their patch-boxes Let the Block-heads repine At our brisk sparkling Wine , And covet our Goddess like Doxes : Let each whining dull Rogue , Fawn , Decoy , and Cologue , And wish to depose his old Gown Sir , Quit all Orders , turn Bully , And at length prove a Cully , And like Bullyrocks to go roar about town Sir : Cho . Let Bumpers go round , Let Bumpers go round , Whilst thus double armed we stand to our ground And the dull Rogue that dare , Bawk his Liquor and spare , Kick him out , Kick him out Whilst Bumpers go round , WHilst like Rockets we rove , We do immitate Jove , Both handsome and ugly we plunder , With drawn trusty Steel , The streets we do Reel . Like Cannons with shouts we do thunder : Our sole joys are Kisses . Bestow'd by brisk Misses , We Lavish and wallow in Pleasure , We detest the dull Fool . That does moap like an Owl , whose poor prisoner soul is confined by measure : Ch. Let Bumpers , &c. We scorn the fools track , Whilst we Revel in Sack , And in natures full plenty do lavish , Our labouring Souls , We refresh with full Bowls , Whilst other poor Mortals live slavish All the night we do play , And sleep all the day , And we know no end of our Horning . Our full Bowls do weep , Every each Star asleep , And with drwzy bowls we salute the dull Morning : Cho . Let Bumpers , &c. Bright jewels we have , Then why should we crave The treasuries of the Magull , Boys , Our Noses do swell , With pure Carbuncle , Then why do we sit all so dull Boys ? If the Moon hide her head , Our Noses so Red , Directs our light heels as we stagger , And whilst that we 're Drunk With a brisk bouncing Punk , Like the young jolly God we look big & do swagger Cho . Let Bumpers go round , Let Bumpers go round , Whilst thus double armed ●re stand to our ground And the dull Rog●e that dare Bawk his Liquor and spare , Kick him out , Kick him out , Whilst Bumpers go round . To the Play-house we reel , Then about we do wheel . And All-a-amode of the brisk Monsieur . In the midst of the Pit , Like our selves we do sit , That is right Bully-rocks of the town sir We cringe and then shew , Shapes Proteus ne'r knew , And with Volly shots we do thunder : Glass windows in rage , We oft do ingage , And a piping-hot Quean we do hire to lye under . Cho . Let Bumpers go round , Let Bumpers go round , While thus double armed we stand to our ground And the dull Rogue that dare Bawk his Liquor and spare , Kick him out , Kick him out , Whilst Bumpers go round . Then oftimes the Watch vs Hectors does catch , And nabs us in this late Ren'counter , With Swords and with stones , We break the Loons bones , And so flye the Cage or the Compter : Thus like Pyrates o' th town , We roam up and down , And scowre the main Sea of the City , And he that durst beat The late Watch in the street , Among us Bully-rocks , is accounted for witty . Cho . Let Bumpers go round , Let Bumpers go round , Whilst thus double armed we stand to our ground And the dull Rogue that dare Bawk his Liquor and spare , Kick him out , Kick him out , Whilst Bumpers go round .
