Good Life Of Song |
| Well, I call this room to order |
| Gather round now and hear my song |
| If you’re drunk or at its border |
| Listen well, this won’t take long |
| There’s no doubting fortune’s favour |
| When it tells you you’re the one |
| But may the real fruits of your labour |
| Be sown by you alone |
| Oh, good life of singing |
| Good life of song |
| Won’t you grant us our full measure |
| When our day is done |
| Oh, good wine and winning |
| Good nights so long |
| Won’t you ease us through our toiling |
| The road is very long |
| After long weeks in the corner |
| Where the wine won’t make you drunk |
| But you held your place with honour |
| Among the bards and the troubadours |
| This is no roaming lamentation |
| No ode to those who’ve gone |
| But a joyful incantation |
| To the road we’ve come upon |
| Oh, good life of singing |
| Good life of song |
| Won’t you ease us through our toiling |
| The road is very long |
| Oh, good wine and winning |
| Good nights so long |
| Won’t you grant us our full measure |
| For now we must go on |
| Good life of singing |
| Good life of song |
| Go tell it on the mountain |
| Let them know we passed this way |
| Let them see we came as equals |
| Let them know we weren’t afraid |
| And they’ll feel your love of music |
| In every note you play |
| Well, it leaves you if you don’t use it |
| Don’t let it slip away |
| Oh, good life of singing |
| Good life of song |
| How you granted us our measure |
| When our work was done |
| Oh, good days of drinking |
| Good nights so long |
| How you eased us through our toiling |
| For now we must go on |
| Good life of singing |
| Good life of song |
| Good life of singing |
| Good life so long |
