The Wassail Song Here we come a-wassailing _ Among the leaves so green, _____C .._. Here we come a wand'ring, ____/ \___/ So fair to be seen. <____/\_---\_\ Pippi Chorus __ [Love and joy come to you, ._.. D_____ And to your wassail too, \___/ \____ And God bless you and send you a happy new year,/_/---_/\____> And God send you a happy new year.] Atlas We are not daily beggars Who beg from door to door, But we are neighbor's children _ Whom you have seen before. _____C .._. ____/ \___/ [Chorus] <____/\_---\_\ Hijinx We have a little purse Made of ratching leather skin; We want some of your small change To line it well within. __ ._.. D_____ [Chorus] \___/ \____ /_/---_/\____> God bless the Master of this house, Rosie Likewise the Mistress too; And all the little children That round the table go. [Chorus] Doesn't wandering about asking for goodies sound like a song about ferrets? My four little wassailing ferrets and I wish you a wonderful holiday season. We also wish for you a healthy, prosperous, and joyous year 2000! - kim and the four ferrets NOTE: For those who are ascii-art challenged, use a fixed-width font, like courier, for best viewing.
