Quartermaster James Posted March 17, 2007 Author Posted March 17, 2007 Many thanks to ye all for your condolences and grettings! Barkeep! Keep the rum flowing! I know that cask isn't empty yet! Now, let us join in song! Kind friends and companions, come join me in rhyme Come lift up your voices in chorus with mine Let us drink and be merry, all grief to refrain For we may and might never all meet here again Here's a health to the company and one to my lass Let us drink and be merry all out of one glass Let us drink and be merry, all grief to refrain For we may and might never all meet here again Here's a health to the dear lass that I love so well Her style and her beauty, sure none can excel There's a smile upon her countenance as she sits on my knee Sure there's no one in in this wide world as happy as we Our ship lies at harbor, she's ready to dock I hope she's safe landed without any shock If ever we should meet again by land or by sea I will always remember your kindness to me
CrazyCholeBlack Posted March 17, 2007 Posted March 17, 2007 ahh, Health to the Company, a good song indeed sir. I'll gladdy avail myself of a pint in honor of your brother Mr Hunt.
