Lyrics (verse 1 and chorus only):

If you wake at midnight, and hear a horse's feet,

Don't go drawing back the blind, or looking in the street,

Them that asks no questions isn't told  lie.

Watch the wall, my darling, while the Gentlemen go by!

Five and twenty ponies, trotting through the dark

Brandy for the Parson, ' Baccy for the Clerk:

Laces for a lady, letters for a spy,

And watch the wall, my darling, while the Gentlemen go by!
