Drink-, drank- en Studentenliederen (Engels)
oa. uit "de Hoge Noot" (uitgave van studentencorps St. Olof, juli 1963)

  1. Auld lang syne
  2. Clementine !
  3. Daisy
  4. There's is a tavern in the town.
  5. What shall we do with the drunken sailor

Auld lang syne

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind,
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And days O- lang syne?
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang sine.
We'll take a cup of kindness yet
For auld lang syne.

Clementine

1.
In a caverii in a canyon
Excavating for a mine,
Dwelt a miner, forty-niner
And his daughter Clementine.

Chorus:
Oh my darling, oh my darling,
Oh, my darling, Clementine.
Thou art lost and gone for ever,
Draedful sorry Clementine!

2.
Light she was and like a fairy
And her shoes were number nine
Herring boxes without topses
Sandals were for Clementine.

Chorus:

3.
Drove she ducklings to the water
Ev-ry morning just at nine
Hit her foot against a splinter
Feil into the foaming brine.

Chorus:

4.
Saw her lips above the water
Blowing bubbles mighty fine
But alas! I was no swimmer
So I lost my Clementine.

Chorus:

5.
In a corner of the churchyard
Where the myrtle doth entwine,
Grow the roses in their posies
Fertilised by Clementine.

Chorus:

6.
How I missed her, how I missed her,
How I missed my Clementine!
But I kissed her little sister
And forgot my Clementine.

Chorus:

Daisy

Daisy, Daisy, give me your answer, do,
I am half crazy, all for the love of you,
l cannot afford a carriage
For our glorious marriage
But you look sweet
Upon a seat
Of a bycycle built for two.

There's is a tavern in the town.

1.
There 's a tavern in a town, in a town,
Where my dear love sits him, sits him down,
And drinks his wine 'mid laughter f ree
And never never thinks of me!

Refrain :
Fare thee wel, for I must leave thee
Do not let this parting greeve thee
And remember that the best of friends must part.
Adieu, adieu kind friends, adieu, adieu, adieu.
I can no longer stay with you, stay with you,
I'll hang my harp on the weeping willow tree
And may the world ffo well with thee.

2.
He left me for a damsell dark
Each Friday night they used to spark
And now my love once true to me
Takes that dark damsell on his knee.

Refrain :

3.
Oh dig my grave both wide and deep
Put tombstones at my head and feet
And on my burst carve a turtle dove
To signify I died for love.
