| Kind friends and companions come join me in rhyme
|
| Come lift up your voices in chorus with mine
|
| Come lift up your voices all grief to refrain
|
| For we may or might never all meet here again
|
| Here’s a health to the company and one to my lass
|
| Let us drink and be merry all out of one glass
|
| Let us drink and be merry all grief to refrain
|
| For we may or might never all meet here again
|
| Here’s a health to the dear lass that I love so well
|
| For her style and her beauty sure none can excel
|
| There’s a smile on her countenance as she sits on my knee
|
| There’s no man in this wide world as happy as me
|
| Here’s a health to the company and one to my lass
|
| Let us drink and be merry all out of one glass
|
| Let us drink and be merry all grief to refrain
|
| For we may or might never all meet here again
|
| Our ship lies at anchor she’s ready to dock
|
| I wish her safe landing without any shock
|
| If ever I should meet you by land or by sea
|
| I will always remember your kindness to me
|
| Here’s a health to the company and one to my lass
|
| Let us drink and be merry all out of one glass
|
| Let us drink and be merry all grief to refrain
|
| For we may or might never all meet here again |
