| Bring us in no brown bread, for that is made of bran, Nor bring us in no white bread, for therein is no gain. |
| Chorus: But bring us in good ale, good ale, And bring us in good ale, For our blessed lady's sake, Bring us in good ale. |
| Bring us in no beef, for there are many bones, But bring us in good ale, for that goeth down at once. |
| Chorus |
| Bring us in no mutton, for that is seldom lean, Nor bring us in no tripes, for they are seldom clean. |
| Chorus |
| Bring us in no eggs, for there are many shells, But bring us in good ale, and bring us nothing else. |
| Chorus |
| Bring us in no capon's flesh, for that is often dear, And bring us in no ducks, flesh that slobber in the mire. |
| Chorus |
