Oh Edmund you look so pleasant now

Your clothes look neat and clean

I haven't seen you drink a drop

Pray tell me where you've been

Your wife and children are they well

You used to treat them strange

But are you kinder to them now

How came this happy change

I had a dream a warning dream

That heaven sent to me

It warned me of a drunkard's curse

Of woe and misery

It warned me of a drunkard's curse

And made a man of me
