A Glass is Good

A GLASS is good, and a lass is good, And a pipe to smoke in cold weather; The world is good, and the people are good, And we're all good fellows together.

A bottle it is a very good thing, With a good deal of good wine in it; A song is good when a body can sing, And to finish we must begin it. A table is good, when spread with good cheer, And good company sitting round it; When a good way off we're not very near, And for sorrow, the devil confound it; A glass is good, &c.

A friend is good when you're out of good luck, For that's a good time to try him; For a Justice good, the haunch of a buck, With such a good present you buy him: A fine old woman is good when she's dead, A rogue very good for good hanging; A fool is good by the nose to be led, My good song deserves a good drubbing. A glass is good, &c.
