SONG
GIVE A CHEER, GIVE A CHEER,
FOR THE BOYS WHO DRINK THE BEER
IN THE CELLAR OF OLD ROBERT'S SCHOOL
THEY ARE BRAVE, THEY ARE BOLD,
FOR ALL THE LIQUOR THEY CAN HOLD
IN THE CELLAR OF OLD ROBERT'S SCHOOL
AND IT'S GUZZEL, GUZZEL GUZZEL,
AS IT TRICKLES DOWN THEIR MUZZELS
SHOUT OUT YOUR ORDER LOUD AND CLEAR
MORE BEER.
AND IF STROMSKE SHOULD APPEAR
TELL HIM FINNEGAN MADE THE BEER
IN THE CELLAR OF OLD ROBERT'S SCHOOL.

Song:
I gave my love a cherry that had no stone.
I gave my love a chicken that had no bone.
I gave my love a ring that had no end.
I gave my love a baby with no crying.
How can there be a cherry that has no stone?
How can there be a chicken that has no bone?
How can there be a ring that has no end?
How can there be a baby with no crying?
A cherry when it's bloomin', has no stone.
A chicken when it's pippin', it has no bone.
A ring when it's rollin', it has no end.
A baby when it's sleeping, has no crying.
