After the end of year party at the Plough and Stars in Brockenborings last night, here is one of the songs performed! And there are a few pictures from the night too!
The Brandy Badgers plays a farewell tune outside, after the party
If yer want a few more pictures of the fireworks show, yer can find some over on the Grand Order forums.
Originally written fer the new year’s party one year ago, this is a lively song ter get the audience dancing from the start. It is best sung to the tune of All for me Grog, here performed by The Dubliners. I play a slightly faster version of the song meself.
Come let’s go to the Plough
Come let’s go to the Plough, the jolly good old Plough
Meet up in time fer the party
As ol’ Halson waves yer in, say hello to friends and kin
Settle by the fireside and join the chorus
Here’s to the new year, a jolly good new year
Toast it with ale, wine and brandy
We will celebrate all day, then we’ll dance the night away
And we’ll go to sleep tomorrow feeling dandy
Come let’s go to the Plough, the jolly good old Plough
Let’s ask around fer a poem
One about the year that passed, and if yer tell it fast
We just might have extra time fer the Piem
Here’s to the new year, a jolly good new year
Toast it with ale, wine and brandy
We will celebrate all day, then we’ll dance the night away
And we’ll go to sleep tomorrow feeling dandy
Come let’s go to the Plough, the jolly good old Plough
Time fer some song and for dancing
So bring out a trusty lute, and just add a drum and flute
Play a merry reel and watch all hobbits bouncing
Here’s to the new year, a jolly good new year
Toast it with ale, wine and brandy
We will celebrate all day, then we’ll dance the night away
And we’ll go to sleep tomorrow feeling dandy
Come let’s go to the Plough, the jolly good old Plough
Time flies fast when we’re jolly
But as night gives way to day, rest assured we’ll be okay
It is just another week ’til Dragon Friday
Here’s to the new year, a jolly good new year
Toast it with ale, wine and brandy
We will celebrate all day, then we’ll dance the night away
And we’ll go to sleep tomorrow feeling dandy
