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.

The man drinks water pure and goes to bed right sober.
The man drinks water pure and goes to bed right sober.
Falls as the leaves do fall,
Falls as the leaves do fall,
Falls as the leaves do fall
So early in October.

Here's to the man who drinks the whiskey clear and goes to bed quite mellow.
Here's to the man who drinks the whiskey clear and goes to bed quite mellow.
Lives as he ought to live,
Lives as he ought to live,
Lives as he ought to live
And dies a jolly good fellow.

Here's to the lad who kisses a pretty girl and runs to tell his mother.
Here's to the lad who kisses a pretty girl and runs to tell his mother.
Ought to have his lips cut off,
Ought to have his lips cut off,
Ought to have his lips cut off
And never kiss another

Here's to the lass who steals a kiss and stays to steal another.
Here's to the lass who steals a kiss and stays to steal another.
She's a boon to all mankind,
She's a boon to all mankind,
She's a boon to all mankind
And very soon a mother

Oh, come into the brewery, Sir. This is the place to be
Oh, come into the brewery, Sir. This is the place to be
If you like your liquor hard
If you like your liquor hard
If you like your liquor hard
Then drink a cup to Bube's

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.
