(Couplet 1:)
My wife and I lived all alone
In a little log hut we called our own
She loved gin and I loved rum
I tell you what, we'd lots of fun
(Chorus:)
Ha, ha, ha, you and me
Little brown jug, don't I love thee
Ha, ha, ha, you and me
Little brown jug, don't I love thee
(Couplet 2:)
'Tis you who makes my friends my foes
'Tis you who makes me wear old clothes
Here you are, so near my nose
So tip her up and down she goes
(Chorus:)
(Couplet 3:)
When I go toiling on the farm
I take the little Brown Jug" under my arm
I place it under a shady tree
Little "Brown Jug", 'tis you and me
(Chorus:)
(Couplet 4:)
If all the folks in Adam's race
Were gathered together in one place
Then I'd prepare to shed a tear
Before I'd part from you, my dear
(Chorus:)
(Couplet 5:)
If I'd a cow that gave such milk
I'd clothe her in the finest silk
I'd feed her on the choicest hay
And milk her twenty times a day
(Chorus:)
(Couplet 6:)
The rose is red, my nose is too
The violets blue and so are you
And yet, I guess, before I stop
We'd better take another drop
(Chorus:)х2
