[Dundee] : Poet's Box, 182 Overgate Dundee,
[1880-1900?]
Dated from examination of text and style.
'Copies of this popular song can always be had at the Poet's Box, 182 Overgate, Dundee'.
First line reads: In Glasgow's famous streets, / Some little boys began, / To amouse themselves, as all kids would, / With the butcher's greasy van. / "It shall not be," the butcher cries; / I'll chap each little rascal's head," / He cried with indignation; / The butcher he ran down the street, / The bobby there he chanced to meet, / And he charged him to the station.
'Price one penny'.
