Seth Lakeman - The Punch Bowl lyrics

rate me

Come all you bold people, Give ear to my song. Ill sing in good praise Of all brandy and rum. There's a clear, crystal fountain, With England's control, Give me that punch ladel, I'll fathom the bowl. My wife she comes in As I sit at my ease. She scolds and she grumbles, And does as she please. Well, she may scold and grumble 'Til she's black as coal. Give me that punch ladel, I'll fathom the bowl. My father he lies In the depths of the sea. With no stone at his feet, Does it matter to me? There's a clear crystal fountain Where England should roll. Give me that punch ladel, I'll fathom bowl.
