Full Lyrics
(1st part – 1730):
Tis women makes us love(Catch Club1/4)
Tis women makes us love
Tis Love that makes us sad,
Tis sadness makes us drink,
And drinking makes us mad.
The Nutbrown Lass(Catch Club1/5)
A Health, a health to the Nutbrown Lass
with the Hazle Hyes,
She that has good Eyes has also good Thighs,
let it pays, let it pays.
As much to the livelier Gray,
They're as good by night as day,
She that has good Eyes has also good Thighs,
Drink away, drink away.
I'll pledge, Sir, I'll pledge,
What ho some wine, here some wine to mine,
And to thine, to thine, to thine,
And to mine the Colours are Divine.
But Oh, the black eyes,
the black give me as much again,
And let it be Sack.
She that has good Eyes has also good Thighs,
And a better knack.
When V and I together meet(Catch Club1/8)
When V and I together meet,
We make up 6 in house or Street,
Yet I and V may meet once more,
And then we 2 can make but 4,
But when that V from I am gone,
Alas poor I can make but one.
Of all the instruments(Catch Club1/13)
Of all the Instruments,
All all all the instruments that are,
none none none none
none none none none
none none none
With the Viol can compare.
mark mark mark mark
How the strings,
How the strings their order keep
With whet whet whet
whet whet whet whet
whet whet whet whet
whet and a sweep sweep sweep
But above all all all all all all all,
This still abounds,
With a zingle zingle zingle
zingle zingle zingle
zingle zingle zing,
And a zit zan zounds.
He that drinks is Immortal(Catch Club2/12)
He that drinks is Immortal,
He that drinks is Immortal,
And can never decay,
For wine still supplys,
For wine still supplys,
what Age wears away.
How can he be Dust,
How can he be Dust,
That moistens his clay?
