To find Mad Tom of Bedlam
Ten thousand years I travelled
Mad Maudlin goes on dirty toes
To save her shoes from gravel.
Refrain:
Still I sing bonny boys, bonny mad boys
Bedlam boys are bonny
For they all go bare and they live by the air
And they want no drink nor money.
I now reprent that ever
Poor Tom was so disdain-ed
My wits are lost since him I crossed
Which makes me thus go chain-ed
Refrain
I went to Satan's kitchen
For to break my food one morning
And there I got souls piping hot
All on the spit a-turning.
Refrain
There I took old a-cauldron
Where boiled ten thousand harlots
Though full of flame I drank the same
To the health of all such varlets.
Refrain
My staff has murdered giants
My bag a long knife carries
To cut mince pies from children's thighs
For which to feed the fairies.
Refrain
The spirits are as lightening
Would on my travels guide me
The sun would shake and the hill would quake
As soon as here espied me.
Refrain
No gypsy, slut or doxy
Shall win my Mad Tom from me
I'll weep all night, with stars I'll fight
The fray shall well become me.
Refrain
So drink to Tom of Bedlam
Go fill the seas in barrels
I'll drink it all, well brewed with gall
And Maudlin drunk I'll quarrel
Refrain
