Lyrics

How happy's that man that's free from all care He loves to make merry, he loves to make merry With a drop of good beer With his pipe and his friends puffing hours away Singing song after song till he hails the new day He can laugh, dance and sing and smoke without fear Be as happy as a king till he hails a new year How happy's that man who's free from all strife He envies no other, he envies no other But travels through life With his pipe and his friends puffing hours away Singing song after song till he hails the new day He can laugh, dance and sing and smokе without fear Be as happy as a king till he hails a nеw year Our seaman of gold, they fear not their foes They throw away discord, they throw away discord And to mirth they're inclined With his pipe and his friends puffing hours away Singing song after song till he hails the new day He can laugh, dance and sing and smoke without fear Be as happy as a king till he hails a new year How happy's that man that's free from all care He loves to make merry, he loves to make merry With a drop of good beer With his pipe and his friends puffing hours away Singing song after song till he hails the new day He can laugh, dance and sing and smoke without fear Be as happy as a king till he hails a new year
