Hi Bill...

I'm with a group that does this song (or at least a song by that title)... hope this is what you're looking for.

Drink up the Cider
lyr:Trad, New lyr: Steve Morales

Drink up the cider jar, pass us 'round the jug
Drink up the cider jar, my lips are all tied up
Eat up all your smelt, then loosen up your belt
And there's still more cider in the jar

Chorus Drink up the cider, drink up the cider,
For tonight we'll merry be
We'll knock the millstones over
And roll them in the clover
The cider is jarred, and so are we

Drink up the cider jar, things are going far
Drink up the cider jar, we're getting quite a start
My cheeks are getting redder, my sight is getting better
And there's still more cider in the jar

Chorus
Drink up the cider jar, get it in your chest.
Drink up the cider jar, it's time I had a rest
There's nothing like more cider to make my smile grow wider
And there's still more cider in the jar

Hope this helps...

M
