+ | |||
+ | Now all you bold fellows who've to this place come, | ||
+ | I will sing you the praises of brandy and rum. | ||
+ | Lend an ear to my song, good cheer is our goal | ||
+ | Give me the punch ladle, I'll fathom the bowl. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Chorus:** | ||
+ | |||
+ | //I'll fathom the bowl, I'll fathom the bowl, | ||
+ | Give me the punch ladle, I'll fathom the bowl.// | ||
+ | |||
+ | From France we do get brandy; from Jamaica comes rum | ||
+ | Sweet oranges and lemons from Portugal come | ||
+ | But stout and strong cider are England' | ||
+ | Give me the punch ladle, I'll fathom the bowl. | ||
+ | |||
+ | [Chorus] | ||
+ | |||
+ | My wife she do disturb me when I'm laid at my ease | ||
+ | She does as she likes and she says as she please | ||
+ | My wife, she's a devil, she's black as the coal | ||
+ | Give to me the punch ladle, I'll fathom the bowl. | ||
+ | |||
+ | [Chorus] | ||
+ | |||
+ | My father he do lie in the depths of the sea | ||
+ | Cold rocks for his pillow -- what matter to he? | ||
+ | There' | ||
+ | Give me the punch ladle, I'll fathom the bowl. | ||
+ | |||
+ | [Chorus] | ||
