LEADER	A
	-
LET no cares now hover o'er us	B
	-
Let the wine unsparing run	C
Wilt thou swell our merry chorus	B
	-
Hast thou all thy duty done	C
	-
SOLO	D
	-
Two young folks the thing is curious	B
	-
Loved each other yesterday	E
Both quite mild to day quite furious	B
	-
Next day quite the deuce to pay	E
If her neck she there was stooping	F
	-
He must here needs pull his hair	G
I revived their spirits drooping	F
	-
And they're now a happy pair	G
	-
CHORUS	B
	-
Surely we for wine may languish	H
	-
Let the bumper then go round	I
For all sighs and groans of anguish	H
	-
Thou to day in joy hast drown'd	I
	-
SOLO	D
	-
Why young orphan all this wailing	F
	-
Would to heaven that I were dead	J
For my guardian's craft prevailing	F
	-
Soon will make me beg my bread	J
Knowing well the rascal genus	B
	-
Into court I dragg'd the knave	K
Fair the judges were between us	B
	-
And the maiden's wealth did save	K
	-
CHORUS	B
	-
Surely we for wine may languish	H
	-
Let the bumper then go round	I
For all sighs and groans of anguish	H
	-
Thou to day in joy hast drown'd	I
	-
SOLO	D
	-
To a little fellow quiet	L
	-
Unpretending and subdued	M
Has a big clown running riot	L
	-
Been to day extremely rude	M
I bethought me of my duty	N
	-
And my courage swell'd apace	O
So I spoil'd the rascal's beauty	N
	-
Slashing him across the face	O
	-
CHORUS	B
	-
Surely we for wine may languish	H
	-
Let the bumper then go round	I
For all sighs and groans of anguish	H
	-
Thou to day in joy hast drown'd	I
	-
SOLO	D
	-
Brief must be my explanation	C
	-
For I really have done nought	I
Free from trouble and vexation	C
	-
I a landlord's business bought	I
There I've done with all due ardour	G
	-
All that duty order'd me	N
Each one ask'd me for the larder	G
	-
And there was no scarcity	N
	-
CHORUS	B
	-
Surely we for wine may languish	H
	-
Let the bumper then go round	I
For all sighs and groans of anguish	H
	-
Thou to day in joy hast drown'd	I
	-
LEADER	G
	-
Each should thus make proclamation	C
	-
Of what he did well to day	I
That's the match whose conflagration	C
	-
Should inflame our tuneful lay	I
Let it be our precept ever	G
	-
To admit no waverer here	G
For to act the good endeavour	G
	-
None but rascals meek appear	G
	-
CHORUS	B
	-
Surely we for wine may languish	H
	-
Let the bumper then go round	I
For all sighs and groans of anguish	H
	-
We have now in rapture drown'd	I
	-
TRIO	G
	-
Let each merry minstrel enter	G
	-
He's right welcome to our hall	P
'Tis but with the self tormentor	G
	-
That we are not liberal	Q
	-
For we fear that his caprices	R
	-
That his eye brows dark and sad	I
That his grief that never ceases	S
	-
Hide an empty heart or bad	I
	-
CHORUS	B
	-
No one now for wine shall languish	H
	-
Here no minstrel shall be found	I
Who all sighs and groans of anguish	H
	-
Has not first in rapture drown'd	I
