Drink Old England Dry
[Verse 1]
Well it's come my brave boys, as I've told you all before
Come drink, me boys, and we'll boldly call for more
For the Russians they are coming and they say that they will try, will try
They say that they will come and drink old England dry

[Chorus]
Aye dry, aye dry me boys, aye dry
They say that they will come and drink old England dry

[Verse 2]
Suppose we should meet with their ships by the way
Ten thousand to one, we will show them British play
We'll take them, we'll sink them and we'll cause them for to fly, to fly
Before that they should come and drink old England dry

[Chorus]
Aye dry, aye dry me boys, aye dry
Before they should come and drink old England dry

[Verse 3]
Then up starts our officer of strength and renown
He swore that he'll fight true for country and for crown
With broadside and cutlass we'll fight until we die, we die
Before that they should come and drink old England dry
[Chorus]
Aye dry, aye dry me boys, aye dry
Before that they should come and drink old England dry

[Verse 4]
So it's come my brave boys as I've told you all before
Come drink me brave boys and we'll boldly call for more
For the Russians they may boast they may boast until they die, they die
When they say that they will come and drink old England dry

[Chorus]
Aye dry, aye dry me boys, aye dry
When they say that they will come and drink old England dry
Aye dry, aye dry me boys, aye dry
Well it's never will they come and drink old England dry
