Where they sit around and get a round in while the getting's good,
They'll make the most until the money's gone.
 [bad word] out to celebrate, to sing and dance and to escape
crazy world where everything seems wrong.
Drinking to forget and to remember all the glory days,
The days we stood apart and we stood strong;
Though the beer befuddles sense it can't provide them [bad word] 
They settle for anotherdrinkingsong.

Where the 'busy man finds recreation' the 'idle man finds business',
The 'melancholy man finds sanctuary';
The 'stranger may have [bad word] #39; and still within these selfsame walls,
The 'citizen may find some courtesy'*.
From Rose and Crown' to ' [bad word] and Bull' all history is written there,
To folklore, myth and legend we belong; [bad word] Masons, Plumbers [bad word] Cricketers and Huntsmen,
All join in with anotherdrinkingsong

Well you can keep your 'long-hours culture' and lusting for adventure,
There's life aplenty down 'The Tap 'n' Spile'
Forget your occupation down the salutation
This [bad word] will make you smile
From quaint barstool philosophy to subtle innuendo
It's funny how the tribes all get along
Curse abstinence and temperance; and celebrate insouciance
And join us in anotherdrinkingsong
