Traditional — Down Among The Dead Men

Here's a health to the King and a lasting peace To faction an end, to wealth increase Come let's drink it while we have breath For there's no drinking after death And he that will this health deny Down among the dead men Down among the dead men Down, down, down, down Down among the dead men let him lie Let charming beauty's health go round With whom celestial joys are found And may confusion yet pursue That selfish woman-hating crew And he who'd woman's health deny Down among the dead men Down among the dead men Down, down, down, down Down among the dead men let him lie In smiling Bacchus' joys I'll roll Deny no pleasure to my soul Let Bacchus' health round briskly move For Bacchus is a friend to Love And he that will this health deny Down among the dead men Down among the dead men Down, down, down, down Down among the dead men let him lie May love and wine their rights maintain And their united pleasures reign While Bacchus' treasure crowns the board We'll sing the joy that both afford And they that won't with us comply Down among the dead men Down among the dead men Down, down, down, down Down among the dead men let them lie And now to Charles, to crown our joys Despising dull and useless toys Whose reign may flourish long and free Here's health to Charles and liberty Should any man this toast deny Down among the dead men Down among the dead men Down, down, down, down Down among the dead men let him lie
