Here's a Health to the Company

Kind friends and companions come join me in rhyme

Come lift up your voices in chorus with mine

Come lift up your voices all grief to refrain

For we may or might never all meet here again

So here's a health to the company and one to my lass

Let's drink and be merry all out of one glass

Let's drink and be merry all grief to refrain

For we may or might never all meet here again

Here's a health to the wee lass that I love so well

For style and for beauty there's none can excel

There's a smile on her countenance as she sits upon my knee

There is no man in this wide world as happy as me

So here's a health to the company and one to my lass

Let's drink and be merry all out of one glass

Let's drink and be merry all grief to refrain

For we may or might never all meet here again

Our ship lies at anchor she is ready to dock

I wish her safe landing without any shock

And if ever I should meet you by land or by sea

I will always remember your kindness to me

So here's a health to the company and one to my lass

Let's drink and be merry all out of one glass

Let's drink and be merry all grief to refrain

For we may or might never all meet here again
