Our Boar Head Bar Maiden

How lovely you are our Boar Head bar maiden
We fancy your red -long curly hair
For a grin we are treated when you bend at our table
To wipe away- our spilt dark brewed beer

Pour us another you lovely young maiden
Pour us another-a dream in a mug
We whistle and giggle with eyes wide open
For we all are here to cheer (to cheer)
For we all are here to cheer

You wipe round and round -wearing such low blousing
Exposing your bosom with laughter 
Our eyes do widen as our hearts do a spyen
Of the twins in your horn of plenty

Pour us another you lovely young maiden
Pour us another-a dream in a mug
We whistle and giggle with eyes wide open
For we all are here to cheer (to cheer)
For we all are here to cheer

So we sing this song of our Boar Head bar maiden
Who fills our bellies with pints of dark ale 
For on our journey home -we will sing this happy song
Of your bosom our hearts are thus clinging 

Pour us another you lovely young maiden
Pour us another-a dream in a mug
We whistle and giggle with eyes wide open
For we all are here to cheer (to cheer)
For we all are here to cheer
