[VERSE-1]
GDrink up the cider George, Cpass me round the jug
GDrink up the cider George, I D7have an empty mug
The Gnight is almost over but you Csee that we're still sober
And there's Gstill more D7cider in the Gjug.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[CHORUS]
Drink up the Gcider, drink up the Ccider
GFor tonight we'll merry D7be
We'll Gknock the milkmaids over and Croll them in the clover
The Gcorn's half D7cut and so are Gwe.

[VERSE-2]
GDrink up the cider George, Cthee's been goin' far
GDrink up the cider George, thee's D7gettin' quite a star
Thy Gcheeks are getting redder, from CCharthouse to Cheddar
