The sheet music:
Lyrics
Hail! fill your glasses up to the ceiling
Drink to the clink of the ice in the pail
Hail! drink a little toast to the ladies
Drink to your love with a stein of ale
By the fireside, when you’re by her side
No place on earth could be worth any more
Hail! fill your glasses up to the ceiling
Drink to the health of the one you adore
Drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink, drink
Refrain:
Here’s to her lips, they’re as red as wine
Give her a drink, give her a drink
Give her a drink
Here’s to her eyes, like a dream divine
Give her a drink, give her a drink
Give her a drink
And here’s to all her charms and such
Her kisses that mean so much
And here’s to the skin that you love to touch
Give us a drink, give us a drink
Give us a drink
