COME LANDLORD FILL THE FLOWING BOWL

1.Come, landlord, fill the flowing bowl, Until it doth run over,
Come landlord, fill the flowing bowl Until it doth run over,
For tonight we'll merry, merry be, For tonight we'll merry, merry be,
For tonight we'll merry, merry be, Tomorrow we'll be sober.

Wake for the fal-al-al-al-i-do, Wake for the fal-al-al-al-i-do,
Wake for the fal-al-al-al-ay! To-mor-row is a ho-li-day.

2. The man who drinketh small beer,
And goes to bed quite sober,
Fades as the leaves do fade,
That drop off in October. Chorus.

3. The man who drinketh strong beer,
And goes to bed right mellow,
Lives as he ought to live,
And dies a jolly good fellow. Chorus.

4. But he who drinks just what he likes,
And getteth half-seas over,
Will live until he dies perhaps,
And then lie down in clover. Chorus.

5. The man who kisses a pretty girl,
And goes and tells his mother,
Ought to have his lips cut off,
And never kiss another. Chorus.
