For We May and Might Never

Kind friends and companions, come join me in rhyme

Come lift up your voices in chorus with mine

Let us drink and be merry, all grief to refrain

For we may and might never all meet here again

Chorus

Here's a health to the company and one to my lass

Let us drink and be merry all out of one glass

Let us drink and be merry, all grief to refrain

For we may and might never all meet here again

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

Her health and her beauty, sure none can excel

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

Sure there's no one on earth is as happy as we

Chorus

Our ship lies at harbor, she's ready to dock

I hope she's safe landed without any shock

If ever I meet you by land or by sea

I will always remember your kindness to me

Chorus
