Landlord, Fill The Flowing Bowl

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 — (and older).

The man who drinks good whiskey clear
And goes to bed right mellow.
The man who drinks good whiskey clear
And goes to bed right mellow.

Lives as he oughta' oughta' live
Lives as he oughta' oughta' live
Lives as he oughta' oughta' live
And dies a right good fellow — (and mellow).

The man who drinks cold water pure
And goes to bed quite sober.
The man who drinks cold water pure
And goes to bed quite sober.

Falls as the autumn leaves do fall
Falls as the autumn leaves do fall
Falls as the autumn leaves do fall
So early in October — (teetot'ler).

But he who drinks just what he likes
And winds up half-seas over.
Yes, he who drinks just what he likes
And winds up half-seas over.

Lives 'til he dies (maybe, maybe, maybe)
Lives 'til he dies (maybe, maybe, maybe)
Lives 'til he dies (maybe, maybe, maybe)
And then lies down in clover.

The giddy girl who gets a kiss
And runs and runs and tells her mother.
Does a very foolish foolish thing
Does a very foolish foolish thing
Does a very foolish foolish thing
And seldom gets another.
So, Landlord, fill the flowing bowl!
