To drink or to sing
Is a very fine thing
To enrapture the social soul;
But the wine must be good,
And the words understood,
Or a fig for the song or the bowl.

To drink or to sing
Is a very fine thing
To enrapture the social soul;
But the wine must be good,
And the words understood,
Or a fig for the song or the bowl.
