Heigh hoe, away the Mare,
let vs set aside all care,
if anyman be disposed to trie,
Loe here comes a lustie crew
that are enforced to crie,
anew Master anew,
Hey now, hey now,
We neither minde to begge nor starue
weel take small paines,
and yet will thriue hay now.
We will have more than we deserue,
weele cut their throats that are aliue.
