Rosin the Beau

I've traveled all over this world
And now to another I go
And I know that good quarters are waiting
To welcome old Rosin the Beau
To welcome old Rosin the Beau. (x2)
And I know that good quarters are waiting
To welcome old Rosin the Beau
When I'm dead and laid out on the counter
A voice you will hear from below
Saying "Send down a hogshead of whisky
To drink with old Rosin the Beau
To drink with old Rosin the Beau". (x2)
Saying "Send down a hogshead of whisky
To drink with old Rosin the Beau"
Then get a half dozen stout fellows
And stack them all up in a row
Let them drink out of half gallon bottles
To the memory of Rosin the Beau
To the memory of Rosin the Beau (x2)
Let them drink out of half gallon bottles
To the memory of Rosin the Beau
Then get a half dozen stout fellows
And let them all stagger and go
And dig a great hole in the meadow
And in it put Rosin the Beau
And in it put Rosin the Beau. (x2)
And dig a great hole in the meadow
And in it put Rosin the Beau
Then get ye a couple of bottles
Put one at me head and me toe
With a diamond ring scratch upon 'em
The name of old Rosin the Beau
The name of old Rosin the Beau. (x2)
With a diamond ring scratch upon 'em
The name of old Rosin the Beau
I feel that old tyrant approaching
That cruel remorseless old foe
And I lift up me glass in his honour
Take a drink with old Rosin the Beau
Take a drink with old Rosin the Beau. (x2)
And I lift up me glass in his honour
Take a drink with old Rosin the Beau
