A Tankard of Ale
BACCHUS' HEALTH1
Here's a health to jolly Bacchus,
Here's a health to jolly Bacchus,
Here's a health to jolly Bacchus, I-ho, I-ho, I-ho !
For merry he doth make us;
For merry he doth make us,
For merry he doth make us, I-ho, I-ho, I-ho !
Come sit ye down together,
Come sit ye down together,
Come sit ye down together, I-ho, I-ho, I-ho !
And bring more liquor hither,
And bring more liquor hither,
And bring more liquor hither, I-ho, I-ho, I-ho I
It goes into the cranium,
It goes into the cranium,
It goes into the cranium, I-ho, I-ho? I-ho !
And thou'rt a boon companion,
And thou'rt a boon companion,
And thou'rt a boon companion, I-ho, I-ho, I-ho !
Here's a health to jolly Bacchus,
Here's a health to jolly Bacchus,
Here's a health to jolly Bacchus, I-ho, I-ho, I-ho !
For merry he doth make us,
For merry he doth make us,
For merry he doth make us, I-ho, I-ho, I-ho !
