Chorus:
Oh! For singing wassail, wassail, wassail,
And jolly come to our jolly wassail
Here comes the ship out in full sail -
Ploughs the wide ocean in many a gale.
Chorus
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
Pockets of money and a cellar of beer
Chorus
If you got an apple I hope you got ten
To make some sweet cider 'gainst we comes again
Chorus
Sometimes it's laurel, sometimes it's bay,
Come fill up our bowl- dish and we'll drink away.
Chorus
If Master and Mistress are sitting at ease
Put your hand in your pocket and give what you please.
Chorus
Come knock at the knocker and ring at the bell
I know you'll reward us for singing wassail
Chorus
Oh! For singing wassail, wassail, wassail,
And jolly come to our jolly wassail
Here comes the ship out in full sail -
Ploughs the wide ocean in many a gale.
Chorus
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year
Pockets of money and a cellar of beer
Chorus
If you got an apple I hope you got ten
To make some sweet cider 'gainst we comes again
Chorus
Sometimes it's laurel, sometimes it's bay,
Come fill up our bowl- dish and we'll drink away.

If Master and Mistress are sitting at ease
Put your hand in your pocket and give what you please.

Come knock at the knocker and ring at the bell
