A Catch

7. There was an old man at Walton cross, [Waltham]
  Who merrily sung when he liv’d by the loss;
      Hey tro-ly loly lo.
  He never was heard to sigh a hey ho,
  But he sent it out with Hey troly loly lo.
      He chear’d up his heart,
      When his goods went to wrack[,]
      With a hem, boy, Hem!
      And a cup of old Sack;
       Sing, hey troly loly lo.
