Sir Walter Raleigh

Another very rude song from the 17th Century

"Sir Walter enjoying his damsel one night,
he tickl'd and pleas'd her to so great a delight
that she cou'd not contain t'wards the end of teh matter,
but in rap-ture cry'd out:
O sweet Sir Walter, O sweet Sir Wlater,
O sweet Sir Walter, O sweet Sir, sweet Sir Walter,
O switter swatter switter swatter switter swatter switter swatter switter swatter!"
