And other sich expressions
With which I can't agree,
For a 'orse with wings an' braids an' things
Is not the 'orse for me.
The moment that 'e 'ad the cash—
Or wot 'e called the gold,
'E turned as nasty as could be.
Says 'e, 'You're sold! You're sold!'
Them was 'is words; it's not for me
To settle wot he meant;
It may 'ave been the 'orse was sold,
It may 'ave been the gent.
I've not a word to say agin
His fondness for 'is 'orse,
But why should 'e insinivate
