'''Title: DRINKING SONGS I''' '''Author: Dupre''' ------------------------------------ DRINKING SONGS DUPRE TAUGHT ME VOLUME ONE - MAIDS IN TRADES Come all of ye trades and ye tradesmen, and let ye be wise that are fools. But remember each day that your trade would decay if a maid did not look to your tools. The blacksmith, the smokey old blacksmith, 'tis known as a jolly old fellow. But his iron would burn old, and his fire would grow cold, If a maid did not blow up the bellows. And then there's the candlestick maker, he works up the tallow so quick. But his craft would be marred, and the works not get hard, If a maid did not hold up the wick. The ploughman, the jolly old ploughman, he follows the plow in the silt. But 'tis ne'er a clod turned, if a maid had not learned him, To drive the blade up to the hilt. The brewer, the jolly old brewer, he maketh a very fine ale. But his brew would be waste, if there's no maid to taste, And make sure that it doesn't grow stale. So come all ye journeymen, craftsmen, and all that are apprenticed to trade. For 'tis ne'er a screw or a nut would be turned, If it weren't for the help of a maid! [[Category:Classic Tales]]
