One pleasent evening in the month of June,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As I was sleeping in my room,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A small bird sat on an ivy bunch,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And the song he sang was The Jug Of Punch.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Too-ra loo-ra loo, too-ra loo-ra lay,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Too-ra loo-ra loo, too-ra loo-ra lay,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{A small bird sang on an ivy bunch,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{And the song he sang was the jug of punch.}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\bigskip
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
What more diveration can a man desire,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Than to sit him by an alehouse fire,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Upon his knee a pritty wench,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And on the table a jug of punch.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Too-ra loo-ra loo, too-ra loo-ra lay,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Too-ra loo-ra loo, too-ra loo-ra lay,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Upon his knee a pritty wench,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{And on the table a jug of punch.}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\bigskip
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let the doctors come with all their art
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
They'll make no impression upon me heart
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Even the cripple forgets his hunch
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When he's snug outside of a jug of punch
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Too-ra loo-ra loo, too-ra loo-ra lay,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Too-ra loo-ra loo, too-ra loo-ra lay,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Even the cripple forgets his hunch}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{When he's snug outside of a jug of punch.}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\bigskip
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If I get drunk, well, me money's me own,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And them don't like me, they can leave me alone;
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I'll tune me fiddle and I'll rosin me bow
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And I'll be welcome wherever I go.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Too-ra loo-ra loo, too-ra loo-ra lay,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Too-ra loo-ra loo, too-ra loo-ra lay,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{I'll tune me fiddle and I'll rosin me bow}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{And I'll be welcome wherever I go.}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\bigskip
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And when I'm dead and I'm in me grave
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
No costly tombstone will I crave.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Lay me down by me native peat,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With a jug of punch at me head and feet.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Too-ra loo-ra loo, too-ra loo-ra lay,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Too-ra loo-ra loo, too-ra loo-ra lay,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{Lay me down by me native peat,}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
\textbf{With a jug of punch at me head and feet.}
