Subject: RE: 'New' verses to old songs
I added a couple to "Landlord Fill The Flowing Bowl" that are now part of the tradition! Here's to the lads that dance the Morris With Bells and sticks a plenty! Here's to the lads that dance the Morris With Bells and sticks a plenty! They are fine upstanding men, They are fine upstanding men, They are fine upstanding men, May their tankards never be empty!!

The last line accompanied by appropriate bouncing actions with the hands!!
