There was an old couple
lived under the hill and Blunt,
it was their name -o
They had good beer
and they fought to sell
and it bore a wonderful fame -o
John Blunt and his wife,
they drank up the drink
till they could drink no more -o
They both got tired and went up to bed,
forgot to bar the door
And so they made a bargain,
a bargain they made,
made it strong and sure,
