Song of Brown October Ale Lyrics by Reginald De Koven

Robin Hood - A Comic Opera

0

(Verse 1)
And it's will ye quaff with me, my lads
And it's will ye quaff with me?
It is a draught of nutbrown ale
I offer unto ye
All humming in the tankard, lads
It cheers the heart forlorn
Oh! here's a friend to ev'ry one
'Tis stout John Barleycorn
(Chorus)
So laugh, lads, and quaff, lads
‘Twill make you stout and hale
Through all my days I’ll sing the praise
Of brown October ale
(Verse 2)
And it's will ye love me true, my lass
And it's will ye love me true?
If not, I'll drink one flagon more
And so farewell to you
If Jean or Moll, or Nan or Doll
Should make your heart to mourn
Fill up the pail with nut-brown ale
And toast John Barleycorn
(Chorus)
So laugh, lads, and quaff, lads
‘Twill make you stout and hale
Through all my days I’ll sing the praise
Of brown October ale
