<L>I Am a young blade that had money good &s;tore</L>
<L>But now by debauchery grown very poor</L>
<L>When I had enough to have &s;erved my turn</L>
<L>Oh then in my pocket my money did burn</L>
<L>Then &s;traitway I hunted to find out good fellows,</L>
<L>And could not endure to be out of an Alehou&s;e,</L>
</LG>
<LG TYPE="refrain">
<L>But by Whoring and Drinking I now am undone,</L>
<L>And now I am laugh'd at, by every one.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>And when I was drunk I mu&s;t needs have a whore,</L>
<L>By which means I quickly con&s;umed my &s;tore;</L>
<L>For I met with a Wench with her powderde locks,</L>
<L>And &s;he for my love furni&s;h me with the Por:</L>
<L>The pains were &s;o great that I could not endure:</L>
<L>The Thyrurgion he would be well paid for his cure.</L>
</LG>
<LG TYPE="refrain">
<L>So by, whoreing and drinking I quite was undone,</L>
<L>And now &amp;c.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>With &s;trong prote&s;tations &s;he how'd to be true,</L>
<L>Who was both a Whore and a Pick-pocket to,</L>
<L>And when &s;he was gone, to the Tavern I went,</L>
<L>To drink of the be&s;t then it was my intent:</L>
<L>But when I my reckoning did come for to pay</L>
<L>This whore &s;he had &s;tole all my Money away,</L>
</LG>
<LG TYPE="refrain">
<L>So I got the Pox and my money was gone,</L>
<L>And now &amp;c.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>I' th' Alhou&s;e and Tavern I took my delight,</L>
<L>And &s;eldme lay from them by day or by night;</L>
<L>By which means I now am reduced &s;o low,</L>
<L>That I by their doors in danger do go:</L>
<L>For now they no tell 'tis ju&s;tice and rea&s;on</L>
<L>They &s;hould have their money and I lie in Pri&s;on,</L>
</LG>
<LG TYPE="refrain">
<L>Thus whoreing &amp; drinking it has me undone,</L>
<L>And now &amp;c.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>My Comrades with whom I my money had &s;pent,</L>
<L>And daily was u&s;ed with them to frequent,</L>
<L>They &s;coff and do jeer as I by them do go,</L>
<L>And look an me as if they did me not know:</L>
<L>Which adds to my &s;orrow, my trouble, and grief,</L>
<L>yet cannot by any means find me relief:</L>
</LG>
<LG TYPE="refrain">
<L>For 'tis whoring and drinking that has me undone,</L>
<L>And now I am laugh'd at by every one.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>And &s;ince I do find how I now am de&s;pi&s;ed</L>
<L>I wi&s;h all youngmen would by me be advised,</L>
<L>And if you in youth may be ble&s;&s;ed with &s;tore,</L>
<L>Oh! keep from an Alehou&s;e and mind not a whore:</L>
<L>And then you will find how your &s;tock will increa&s;e,</L>
<L>your lives he a comfort, your con&s;cience at peace;</L>
</LG>
<LG TYPE="refrain">
<L>But by whoreing and drinking I now am undone,</L>
<L>And now &amp;c.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>The readir&s;t road to de&s;truction I think,</L>
<L>Is for poor beedle&s;s youngmen like &s;wine for to drink,</L>
<L>for they by this means all their &s;en&s;e do drown'd,</L>
<L>And do hoth their &s;ouls and their bodies confound:</L>
<L>For a man that is brunk has no rea&s;on at all,</L>
<L>And into all Kind of temptation doth fall;</L>
</LG>
<LG TYPE="refrain">
<L>For by whoring &amp; drinking my &s;elf I've undone,</L>
<L>And now &amp;c.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>When a Whore doth but light of a man that's in drink</L>
<L>his Coyn is her own &s;he doth pre&s;ently think,</L>
<L>She &s;awns on him then, and &s;he plays with his hair</L>
<L>And he being drunk is &s;oon caught in a &s;nare:</L>
<L>But while &s;he doth give him a ki&s;s or a &s;mile</L>
<L>Be &s;ure of his Money &s;he doth him beguile:</L>
</LG>
<LG TYPE="refrain">
<L>Thus by whoreing &amp; drinking I am quite undone,</L>
<L>And now &amp;.</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>Then do not you que&s;tion what I write to you,</L>
<L>For wofull experience doth tell me'tis true,</L>
<L>And I that for &s;olly &s;o dearly have paid</L>
<L>Thereof would have other men be afraid:</L>
<L>I heartily wi&s;h that my vain wanton doing</L>
<L>Might prove as a means to prevent others ruine.</L>
</LG>
<LG TYPE="refrain">
<L>For by whoring &amp; drinking I am quite undone,</L>
<L>And now &amp;</L>
</LG>
<LG>
<L>There's no man doth know but be that hath try</L>
<L>When poverty comes how the friend&s;hip's deny'd;</L>
<L>And tho&s;e unto whom you were formerly kind,</L>
<L>Greate&s;t &s;trangers will &s;een you will certainly find.</L>
<L>But be wi&s;e in pour youth your friends will remain.</L>
<L>Who, if you grow poor, will your folly disdain:</L>
</LG>
<LG TYPE="refrain">
<L>For by whoring &amp; drinking I am quite undone,</L>
<L>And now I and laugh'd At by every one.</L>
