Correction Lyrics Down Among The Dead Men by Traditional

Lyrics

Here's a health to the King and a lasting peace
To faction an end, to wealth increase
Come let's drink it while we have breath
For there's no drinking after death
And he that will this health deny
Down among the dead men
Down among the dead men
Down, down, down, down
Down among the dead men let him lie

Let charming beauty's health go round
With whom celestial joys are found
And may confusion yet pursue
That selfish woman-hating crew
And he who'd woman's health deny
Down among the dead men
Down among the dead men
Down, down, down, down
Down among the dead men let him lie

In smiling Bacchus' joys I'll roll
Deny no pleasure to my soul
Let Bacchus' health round briskly move
For Bacchus is a friend to Love
And he that will this health deny
Down among the dead men
Down among the dead men
Down, down, down, down
Down among the dead men let him lie

May love and wine their rights maintain
And their united pleasures reign
While Bacchus' treasure crowns the board
We'll sing the joy that both afford
And they that won't with us comply
Down among the dead men
Down among the dead men
Down, down, down, down
Down among the dead men let them lie

And now to Charles, to crown our joys
Despising dull and useless toys
Whose reign may flourish long and free
Here's health to Charles and liberty
Should any man this toast deny
Down among the dead men
Down among the dead men
Down, down, down, down
Down among the dead men let him lie
