For He's A Jolly Good Fellow

( American version )

For he's a jolly good fellow,
for he's a jolly good fellow,
For he's a jolly good fellow (pause),
which nobody can deny
Which nobody can deny,
which nobody can deny,
For he's a jolly good fellow,
for he's a jolly good fellow,
For he's a jolly good fellow (pause),
which nobody can deny!

( British version )

For he's a jolly good fellow,
for he's a jolly good fellow,
For he's a jolly good fellow (pause),
and so say all of us,
And so say all of us,
and so say all of us,
For he's a jolly good fellow,
for he's a jolly good fellow,
For he's a jolly good fellow (pause),
and so say all of us!

( We Won't Go Home Till Morning -
  a Stephen Foster variation.
  May be the original! )

We're all met here together,
We're all met here together,
We're all met here together (pause),
To eat and drink good cheer;
To eat and drink good cheer;
To eat and drink good cheer;
For we won't go home till morning,
We won't go home till morning,
We won't go home till morning (pause),
Till day light does appear.

We'll sing, we'll dance and be merry,
We'll sing, we'll dance and be merry,
We'll sing, we'll dance and be merry (pause),
And kiss the lasses dear;
And kiss the lasses dear;
And kiss the lasses dear;
For we won't go home till morning,
We won't go home till morning,
We won't go home till morning (pause),
Till day light does appear.

The girls we love them dearly,
The girls we love them dearly,
The girls we love them dearly,
And they love us, tis clear;
And they love us, tis clear;
And they love us, tis clear;

(Coda)
For now we must be going,
For now we must be going,
For now we must be going (pause),
Away, away, away.
