Here's a health to the king and lasting peace
To faction end, to wealth increase
Come let us drink while we have breath
For there's no drinking after death
And he that will this health deny
Down among the dead men
Down among the dead men
Down, down, down, down
Down among the dead men let him lie
In smiling Bacchuses, joy high roll
Deny no pleasures to my soul
The Bacchus is health 'round briskly move
For Bacchus is the friend of love
And he that would this health deny
Down among the dead men
Down among the dead men
Down, down, down, down
Down among the dead men let him lie
May love and wine, their rights maintain
And their united pleasures reign
While Bacchus' treasure crowns the board
We'll sing the joy that both afford
And they that won't with us comply
Down among the dead men
Down among the dead men
Down, down, down, down
Down among the dead men let him lie
