Should old acquaintance be forgot, And never brought to mind? Should old acquaintance be forgot, And old long since?
For old long since, my dear, For old long since, We'll take a cup of kindness yet, For old long since.
And surely you'll buy your pint cup! And surely I'll buy mine! And we'll take a cup o' kindness yet, For old long since.
For old long since, my dear, For old long since, We'll take a cup of kindness yet, For old long since.
We two have run about the slopes, And picked the daisies fine; But we've wandered many a weary foot, Since old long since.
For old long since, my dear, For old long since, We'll take a cup of kindness yet, For old long since.
We two have paddled in the stream, From morning sun till dine; But seas between us broad have roared Since old long since.
For old long since, my dear, For old long since, We'll take a cup of kindness yet, For old long since.
And there's a hand my trusty friend! And give me a hand o' thine! And we'll take a right good-will draught, For old long since.
For old long since, my dear, For old long since, We'll take a cup of kindness yet, For old long since.
[Based off the ballad "Old Long Syne" printed in 1711]
Should Old Acquaintance be forgot, And never thought upon; The flames of Love extinguished, And fully past and gone: Is thy sweet Heart now grown so cold, That loving Breast of thine; That thou canst never once reflect On Old long syne.
CHORUS: On Old long syne my Jo, On Old long syne, That thou canst never once reflect, On Old long syne.
