HERE WE COME A-WASSAILING
1. Here we come a wassailing Among the leaves so green, Here we come a wandering So fair to be seen.
Chorus Love and joy come to you, And to you your wassail too, And God bless you and send you a happy New Year. And God send you a happy New Year.
2. Our wassail cup is made Of the rosemary tree, And so is your beer Of the best barley. Chorus
3. We are not daily beggars That beg from door to door, But we are neighbours' children Whom you have seen before. Chorus
4. Good Master and good Mistress, As you sit by the fire, Pray think of us poor children Are wandering in the mire. Chorus
5. We have a little purse Made of ratching leather skin; We want some of your small change To line it well within. Chorus
6. Call up the Butler of this house, Put on his golden ring; Let him bring us a glass of beer, And the better we shall sing. Chorus
7. Bring us out a table, And spread it with a cloth; Bring us out a mouldy cheese, And some of your Christmas loaf. Chorus
8. God bless the Master of this house, Likewise the Mistress too; And all the little children That round the table go. Chorus
