[Verse 1]
Wassail, wassail, all over the town
The cup, it is white, and the ale, it is brown
The cup is made of the good ashen tree
And so is the malt of the finest barley

[Verse 2]
Oh, master and missus, are you all within?
Pray open the door and let us come in
Oh, master and missus who sit by the fire
Pray think of the trav'lers who walk through the mire

[Verse 3]
Oh, where is the maid with the silver hairpin
To open the door and let us come in?
Oh, master and missus, it is our desire
A good loaf and cheese and a toast by the fire

[Verse 4]
There was an old man, and he had an old cow
And how for to keep her, he didn't know how
He built up a barn for to keep his cow warm
And a drop of good cider will do us no harm

[Verse 5]
The good dog of Langport, he burnt his long tail
And this is the night we go singing wassail
Oh, master and missus, now we must be gone
Bless all in this house 'til we come again
[Outro]
Bless all in this house 'til we come again!
