These guys want you to drink the cider and that is about all that they can think about. I hope it is strong cider.


Drink up the Cider

G                                                 C
Drink up the cider George, pass me round the jug
G                                                             D7
Drink up the cider George, thy garden's well nigh dug
G                                                      C
There's dung all o'er thy taters and half up thy gaters
       G                         D7              G
And there's still more cider in the jug

G                             C
Drink up the cider, drink up the cider
      G                              D7
For tonight we'll merry be
          G                                                C  
We'll knock the milk maids over and roll them in the clover
       G                D7                   G
The corn's half cut and so are we


G                                        C                
Drink up the cider George, please by goin' far
G                                                                      D7
Drink up the cider George, he's gettin' quite a star
G                                                     C
His cheeks are gettin' redder, from charter house to cheddar
                   G              D7             G
And there's still more cider in the jar

CHORUS
G                                         C
Drink up the cider George; get up off the mat
G                                                                        D7
Drink up the cider George, put on thy great big hat
G                                          C                  
We're goin' to Ballyverny to see me cousin Ernie
                    G             D7             G
And there's still more cider in the bath


CHORUS
G                                         C
Drink up the cider George, get up off me chest
G                                                                      D7
Drink up the cider George it's time you had a rest
            G                                        C
There's nothing like more cider to make your smile grow wider
                    G             D7             G
And there's still more cider in the West

CHORUS
