Little Brown Jug |
Me and my wife live all alone |
In a little log hut we’re all our own; |
She loves gin and I love rum |
And don’t we have a lot of fun! |
Ha, ha, ha, you and me |
Little brown jug, don’t I love thee! |
Ha, ha, ha, you and me |
Little brown jug, don’t I love thee! |
When I go toiling on the farm |
I take the little jug under my arm; |
Place it under a shady tree |
Little brown jug, 'tis you and me. |
' |
'Tis you that makes me friends and foes |
'Tis you that makes me wear old clothes; |
But, seeing you’re so near my nose |
Tip her up and down she goes |
If all the folks in Adam’s race |
Were gathered together in one place |
Then I’d prepare to she’d a tear (I'd let them go without a tear) |
Before I’d part from you, my dear |
If I’d a cow that gave such milk |
I’d dress her in the finest silk; |
Feed her up on oats and hay |
And milk her twenty times a day |
I bought a cow from Farmer Jones |
And she was nothing but skin and bones; |
I fed her up as fine as silk |
She jumped the fence and strained her milk |
And when I die don’t bury me at all |
Just pickle my bones in alcohol; |
I’ut a bottle o' booze at my head and feet |
And then I know that I will keep |
The rose is red, my nose is too |
The violets blue and so are you; |
And yet, I guess, before I stop |
We’d better take another drop |
