Ho! Beer is great, beer is grand I long to hold one in my hand With frosty head and amber hue Not much that I wouldn't do For a pint of ale or smoky stout Beer goes in, joy comes out Grab a cask and yank the shive Drink 'em up till closing time Keep your wine, it's not for me Keep your rum, I have no need For beer is a welcome sight to see Beer is great, beer is swell I'd throw my mother in a wishing well So I could wish for one pint more Quaff the drink i do adore Cider, gin and vodka, no Whiskey's good but don't add Coke Ale is a wondrous master stroke The world has declined the tankard and stein And flocked to the flutes and the shots Our fathers would cry and exclaim "Oh god, why?!" We abandoned the Reinheitsgebot When the sky it turns black And the land it is parched And your life becomes weathered and dull We march to the drum of the cask, bu*t and tun For there's plenty of glasses to fill 'Cause! Beer is grand, beer is ace Watch me stick one in my face Goblet, glass or plastic cup I don't really give a- Beer is good, if I may Help your hang ups melt away Mark my words and mark them well Beer is great, yes, beer is swell
