1. I've travelled 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, To welcome old Rosin the Beau,
And I know that good quarters are waiting To welcome old Rosin the Beau.
2.When I'm dead and laid out on the counter, A voice you will hear from below,
Saying "Send down a hogshead of whiskey To drink with old Rosin the Beau.
To drink with old Rosin the Beau, To drink with old Rosin the Beau,"
Saying "Send down a hogshead of whiskey To drink with old Rosin the Beau."
3. And get a half dozen stout fellows, And stack 'em 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, To the memory of Rosin the Beau,
Let them drink out of half gallon bottles To the memory of Rosin the Beau.
4. Get this 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, And in it put Rosin the Beau,
And dig a great hole in the meadow, And in it put Rosin the Beau.
5. Get ye a couple of bottles; Put one at me head and me toe.
With a diamond ring scratch upon them The name of old Rosin the Beau.
The name of old Rosin the Beau, The name of old Rosin the Beau.
With a diamond ring scratch upon them The name of old Rosin the Beau.
