The Sulphur Waters

How do you like the sulphur waters ?
I asked a young maiden of ten :
   She said, little dunce,
   "Well, I only tried once,
   But that's quite enough, never again.
   I don't like the Harrogate waters,
   They don't taste a little bit nice,
   I don't like the Harrogate waters,
   I'd rather have strawberry ice."

What do you think of the Harrogate waters ?
I asked a young curate to–day,
   He said, " Deary me,
   We shall never agree,
   And I really must truthfully say,
   I don't like the Harrogate waters,
   They're like physic and things of that ilk,
   I don't like the Harrogate waters,
   I'd rather have soda and milk."

How do you like the sulphur waters ?
I asked my old friend Colonel Brown.
   He went red in the face,
   Stamped all over the place,
   Then he said with a terrible frown,
   "I don't like the Harrogate waters,
   To see I don't drink 'em I'll watch,
   I don't like the Harrogate waters,
   I'd rather have Polly and Scotch."
