A Health To The Company lyrics

Here's a health to the company

and one to my lass.

Let us drink and be merry

all out of one glass.

Let us drink and be merry

all grief to refrain;

for we may or might never

all meet here again.

Kind friends and companions

come join in my rhyme;

and lift up your voices

in chorus with mine.

Let us drink and be merry

all grief to refrain;

for we may or might never

all meet here again.

Our ship lies at harbor;

she's ready to dock.

I wish her safe landing

without any shock.

And if ever we meet again

on land or on sea,

I will always remember

your kindness to me.

My footsteps may falter

my wit, it might fail.

My course may be challenged

by November gale.

E'er fortune shall prove

to be friend or be foe,

you will always be with me

wherever I go.
