lyrics

Come swish around, my pretty punk,
And keep me dancing still,
That I may stay a sober man
Until I drink my fill.
Sobriety is a jewel
That I do much adore,
And therefore keep me dancing,
Though drunkards lie and snore.
O mind your feet, O mind your feet,
Keep dancing like a wave,
And under every dancer
A dead man in his grave.
No ups and downs, my pretty,
A mermaid, not a punk;
A drunkard is a dead man,
And all dead men are drunk.
