Jug of Punch
[Verse 1]
C
One pleasant evening in the month of June
G C
As I was sitting with my glass and spoon
F
A small bird sat on an ivy bunch
C F C G C
And the song he sang was "The Jug Of Punch"
[Chorus]
C F G C
Too ra loo ra loo, too ra loo ra lay, too ra loo ra loo, too ra loo ra lay
C F G
A small bird sat on an ivy bunch
C F C G C
And the song he sang was "The Jug Of Punch"
[Verse 2]
C
What more diversion can a man desire?
G C
Than to sit him down by snug turf fire
F
Upon his knee a pretty wench
C F C G C
And on the table a jug of punch
[Chorus]
C F G C
Too ra loo ra loo, too ra loo ra lay, too ra loo ra loo, too ra loo ra lay
C F G
Upon his knee a pretty wench
C F C G C
And on the table a jug of punch
[Verse 3]
C
Let the doctors come with all their art
G C
They'll make no impression upon my heart
F
Even a cripple forgets his hunch
C F C G C
When he's snug outside of a jug of punch
[Chorus]
C F G C
Too ra loo ra loo, too ra loo ra lay, too ra loo ra loo, too ra loo ra lay
F
Even a cripple forgets his hunch
C F C G C
When he's snug outside of a jug of punch
[Verse 4]
C
And if I get drunk, well, the money's me own
G C
And if they don't like me they can leave me alone
F
I'll tune me fiddle and I'll rosin me bow
C F C G C
And I'll be welcome wherever I go
[Chorus]
C F G C
Too ra loo ra loo, too ra loo ra lay, too ra loo ra loo, too ra loo ra lay
F
I'll tune me fiddle and I'll rosin me bow
C F C G C
And I'll be welcome wherever I go
[Verse 5]
C
And when I'm dead and in my grave
G C
No costly tombstone will I have
C F
Just lay me down in my native peat
C F C G C
With a jug of punch at my head and feet
[Chorus]
C F G C
Too ra loo ra loo, too ra loo ra lay, too ra loo ra loo, too ra loo ra lay
F
Just lay me down in my native peat
C F C G G7 C
With a jug of punch at my head and feet
