¶Lyrics / Text

To make a plum pudding to ev'ry one's taste. So all may be eaten with nothing to waste, Take of raisins and currants and bread crumbs, all round; Also suet from oxen, and flour a pound, Of citron well candied, or lemon as good, With molasses and sugar, eight ounces, I would, Into this first compound, next must be hasted A nutmeg well grated, ground ginger well tasted, With salt to preserve it, of such a teaspoonful; Then of milk half a pint, and of fresh eggs take six; Be sure after this that you properly mix. Next tie up in a bag, just as round as you can, Put into a capacious and suitable pan, And boil for eight hours Then you'll have a plum pudding for Christmas Day!
