A Jovial crew of lively Lads, all in a merry vain, Did drink unto their sweethearts all, their true loves to obtain for men and maids, to be Comrades Is counted a gallant thing and he that gains his Sweet-hearts love, Conceits himself a King. Let pottles flie Drink barrels drie. Whilst rivers fill with rain, and when the bowle is passed round, Wee'l drink to them again. Come here's a health to bonny Besse, that loves me with her heart, Shee'l cast her eyes, up to the skies, and knows her Mothers art shee'l clip and kisse, what harme is this, Her Middle I can span, her delight for to imbrace A loving hearted man. Let pottles flye, etc. Come heres a cup to nimble Nan, whose cheeks are like a rose, Shee's sweet & neat, and kisses sweet and like a Lady goes, her forehead high, and rowling eye
Has so intangled me that I am taken, cast, and thrown, In loves captivity, Let pottles flie Drink barrels drie, etc, Ile drink a health to Margery, the Milk-maid frank and free Who chanc'd to loose her maidenhead alas what remedy, A merry Lasse may serve to passe Ile take her for my own there's more that does such Venus tricks Although it is not known Let pottles flie, etc. Then hears a health to jumping Joan whose Placket now is sound For why the mending of the same, has cost me twenty pound shee's right and streight, (as well as Kate) This I can justifie, for being lately underlaid Shee'l tread no more awry, Let pottles flie, Drink barrels drie: Whilst rivers fill with rain and when the bowle is passed round Wee'l drink to them again.
