가사
[Verse 1]
The French drink wine, the English tea
The Yankee gulps his hot black coffee
The child drinks milk nine times a day
The Scotsman sips his whiskey toddy
[Verse 2]
You can keep you wine and keep your tea
My curse on him that give me coffee
I'll drink porter, if I may
It makes me feel content and happy
[Verse 3]
Porter quaffed down with a laugh
The gentry have their aching livers
Water is alright in tea
For fish and things that swim in rivers
[Verse 4]
The poor man and the beggar, too
The poet in the corner thinking
If they had money enough to spend
It's pints of porter they'd be drinking
[Verse 5]
Porter quaffed down with a laugh
The gentry have their aching livers
Water is alright in tea
For fish and things that swim in rivers
[Verse 6]
The miser hoards and stores his gold
The bee collects the summer honey
When that miser's dead and cold
Someone else will kiss his money!
[Verse 7]
Porter quaffed down with a laugh
The gentry have their aching livers
Water is alright in tea
For fish and things that swim in rivers
[Verse 8]
Some go in for counting beads
More go in for chasing women
The scholar stays at home and reads
Give me the glass with porter in it
[Verse 9]
Porter quaffed down with a laugh
The gentry have their aching livers
Water is alright in tea
For fish and things that swim in rivers
Porter quaffed down with a laugh
The gentry have their aching livers
Water is alright in tea
For fish and things that swim in rivers
