Jockey thine horn pipes dull by Thomas Weelkes — Lyrics
Jockey, thine horn pipes dull
give wind man at full,
fie upon such a sad gul,
like an hoody doody,
all too moody
toodle, toodle, pipe it up thicker,
ile tread it the quicker:
Darite growes so grave,

pipe it up thicker,
ile tread it the quicker:
Then if the chance to glance in,
Give us two roome to dance in
like an hoody doody,
all too moody
