Christmas at the Ale House

It's Christmas at the ale house
 And the atmosphere is cheery
 Holly boughs and candles
 Brighten up the dark and dreary
 We sit and crack with glass in hand
 And celebrate the season
 We drink to health and happiness
 Or any other reason
 So here's to the company
 And here's to you and me
 Oh, merry is the season boys
 And merry we will be
 There's doctor and there's farmer
 There's teacher and there's sailor
 There's lawyer and there's carpenter
 There's soldier and there's sailor
 We join with one another there
 In revelry and folly
 The Christmas spirit's high
 For we shun all melancholy
 So here's to the company
 And here's to you and me
 Oh, merry is the season boys
 And merry we will be
 All the fiddlers and the pipers
 They've got the rafters ringing
 With jigs and reels to make you dance
 And carols for the singing
 Goodwill and friendship does abound
 There's love and praise aplenty
 Especially for the one who buys
 When the glass is empty
 So here's to the company
 And here's to you and me
 Oh, merry is the season boys
 And merry we will be, ooh
 ♪
 Oh well, the landlord said drink up now
 For the evening's almost over
 The night is cold and deep with snow
 But the moon will guide the rover
 Put on your coats and head for home
 And come back when you're able
 Says, "I will not be leaving
 While there's drink upon the table"
 So here's to the company
 And here's to you and me
 Oh, merry is the season boys
 And merry we will be
 Now the landlord is a fine man
 We've come to that conclusion
 But his old wife, she threw us out
 And put an end to boozin'
 So fare thee well my comrades
 All these parting bring such sorrow
 Well, I count each lonely hour
 'Til we meet again tomorrow
 So here's to the company
 And here's to you and me
 Oh, merry is the season boys
 And merry we will be
 So here's to the company
 And here's to you and me
 Oh, merry is the season boys
 And merry we will be
