Sommerset Gloucester Wassail |
Eric Schwandt/Dave Guard |
Wassail, wassail, all over the town. |
The cup, it is white and the ale, |
it is brown |
The cup, it is made of the good ashen tree and so is the malt of the finest |
barley |
Oh, master and missus, are you all within? |
Pray open the door and let us come in |
Oh, master and missus who sit by the fire, pray think of the trav’lers who walk |
through the mire |
Oh, where is the maid with the silver hair pin to open the door and let us come |
in? |
Oh, master and missus, it is our desire, a good loaf and cheese and a toast by |
the fire |
There was an old man and he had an old cow and how for to keep her, |
he didn’t know how |
He built up a barn for to keep his cow warm and a drop of good cider will do us |
no harm |
The good dog of Langport, he burnt his long tail and this is the night we go |
singing wassail |
Oh, master and missus, now we must be gone. |
Bless all in this house until we |
come again |
Bless all in this house 'till we come again! |
