I REDE YOU BEWARE O' THE RIPPLES I rede you beware o' the ripples young man, I rede you beware o' the ripples young man, Though the saddle be soft, you needna' ride oft For fear that the girding beguile you, young man. I rede you beware o' the ripples young man, I rede you beware o' the ripples young man, Though music be pleasure, take music in measure Or you may want wind in your whistle, young man. I rede you beware o' the ripples young man, I rede you beware o' the ripples young man, Whate'er you bestow, do less than you dow The more will be thought o' your kindness, young man. I rede you beware o' the ripples young man, I rede you beware o' the ripples young man, If you would be strong and wish to live long Dance less with your arse to the kipples, young man. rede=advise; ripples=aches in the lower back; dow=are able; kipples=rafters From 1800 edition of Merry Muses of Caledonia.
