¶Lyrics / Text

Full Bags, a brisk Bottle, and a Beautiful Face, Are the three greatest Blessings poor Mortals embrace, But alas, we grow Muckworms if Bags do but fill, And a bonny gay Dame often ends in a Pill: Then hey for brisk Claret, whose Pleasures ne'er waste, By a Bumper we're rich, and by two we are chaste.
