| And keep me dancing still | B |
| That I may stay a sober man | C |
| Although I drink my fill | B |
| - | |
| Sobriety is a jewel | D |
| That I do much adore | E |
| And therefore keep me dancing | F |
| Though drunkards lie and snore | E |
| O mind your feet O mind your feet | G |
| Keep dancing like a wave | H |

| A dead man in his grave | H |

| A mermaid not a punk | A |
| A drunkard is a dead man | C |
| And all dead men are drunk | A |
