I was out promenading one fine summer day, / When I chanced upon three bosom cronies to stray, / And a beer shop we happened to pass on our way.
"Now boys," said I, stopping them all with a wink, / "If you'll step round the corner, I'll treat to a drink; / How is it, my hearties? now, what do you think?"
