  Barley Mow

   

  Here's a health to the Barley Mow, my brave boys,

  And we'll drink to the Barley Mow,

  We'll drink out of the half-pints, half noggins, nipperkins

  And a brown bowl, my boys,

  Here's a health to the Barley Mow, my brave boys,

  And we'll drink to the Barley Mow.

   

  (In the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th verses the words, pints,

  quarts, half-gallons and gallons are successively

  interpolated before "Half pints, half noggins, etc, in

  the 3rd line, so that the last verse reads: - )

   

  Here's a health to the Barley Mow, my brave boys,

  And we'll drink to the Barley Mow.

  We’ll drink out of the gallons, half-gallons, quarts,

  pints, half-pints, half noggins, nipperkins,

  And a brown bowl, my boys.

  Here's a health to the Barley Mow, my brave boys

  And we'll drink to the Barley Mow.

  .

  Harriet Goodland. Hambridge, Sept. 1903.
