W:Where we can sing and drink and be merry W:And drive away all our cares and worry, W:When Jones's ale was new, my boys, when Jones's ale was new. W: W:2 W:The first to come in was the ploughman with sweat all on his brow, W:Up with the lark at the break of day he guides the speedy plough. W:He drives his team, how they do toil W:O'er hill and valley to turn the soil, W:When Jones's ale was new, my boys, when Jones's ale was new. W: W:3 W:The next to come in was the blacksmith, his brawny arms all bare W:And with his pint of Jones's ale he has no fear or care. W:Throughout the day his hammer he's swinging W:And he sings when he hears the anvil ringing, W:When Jones's ale was new, my boys, when Jones's ale was new. W: W:4 W:The next to come in was the scythe-man so cheerful and so brown W:And with the rhythm of his scythe the corn he does mow down. W:He works, he mows, he sweats and he blows W:And he leaves his swathes laying all in rows, W:When Jones's ale was new, my boys, when Jones's ale was new. W: W:5 W:The next to come in was the tinker and he was no small beer drinker, W:And he was no small beer-drinker to join the jovial crew. W:He told the old woman he'd mend her old kettle, W:Good Lord how his hammer and tongs did rattle W:When Jones's ale was new, my boys, when Jones's ale was new. W: W:6 W:Now here is Jones our landlord, a jovial man is he, W:Likewise his wife a buxom lass who joins in harmony. W:We wish them happiness and good will W:While our pots and glasses they do fill, W:When Jones's ale was new, my boys, when Jones's ale was new.
