Let Union Be
Come my lads, let us be jolly
Drive away dull melancholy,
For to grieve it is a folly
When we're met together.
Solomon in all his glory
Told each wife a different story,
In our cups we'll sing him glory
When we're met together.
Let union be in all our hearts,
Let all our hearts be joined as one.
We'll end the day as we began,
We'll end it all in pleasure.
Eating and drinking they're so charming,
Smoking and piping there's no harm in.
All these things we'll take delight in
When we're met together.
Cease your quarreling and fighting,
Evil-speaking and backbiting.
All these things take no delight in
When we're met together.
Let union be in all our hearts,
Let all our hearts be joined as one.
We'll end the day as we began,
We'll end it all in pleasure.
Grab the bottle as it passes,
Do not fail to fill your glasses.
Water drinkers are dull asses
When we're met together.
Let union be in all our hearts,
Let all our hearts be joined as one.
We'll end the day as we began,
We'll end it all
We'll end the day as we began,
We'll end it all in pleasure.
