Chorus:
Bring us in good ale, good ale, bring us in good ale
For our blessed Lady's sake, bring us in good ale

Bring us in no brown bread, for that is made of bran,
Nor bring us in no white bread, for therein is no grain,

[Chorus]

Bring us in no beef, for there is many bones,
But bring us in good ale, for that goes down at once.

[Chorus]

Bring us in no bacon, for that is passing fat,
But bring us in good ale, and give us enough of that.

[Chorus]

Bring us in no mutton, for that is passing lean,
Nor bring us in no tripes, for they be seldom clean.

[Chorus]

Bring us in no eggs, for there are many shells,
But bring us in good ale, and give us nothing else.

[Chorus]

Bring us in no butter, for therein are many hairs,
Nor bring us in no pig's flesh for that will make us bears.

[Chorus]

Bring us in no puddings, for therein is all goat's blood
Nor bring us in no venison, that is not for our good.

[Chorus]

Bring us in no capon's flesh, for that is often dear,
Nor bring us in no duck's flesh, for they slobber in the mere

[Chorus]
