Transcription

Air – "When in death I shall calm recline"

When in death I shall calm recline
Oh take me home to my "Missus" dear
Tell her I've taken a little more wine
Than I could carry, or very well bear
Bid her not scold me on the morrow
For staying out drinking all night
But several bottles of Soda borrow
To cool my coppers and set me right.
