Sung to a New Tune much in Request.  
Licenced according to Order.

We'll merrily roar out our Harvest home,  
Harvest home, harvest home;  
We'll merrily roar out our Harvest home,  
We'll merrily roar out our Harvest home▪

For why should the Vicar have One in Ten,  
One in Ten, One in Ten,  
For why should the Vicar have One in Ten:  
For why should, etc.   

For staying while Dinner is cold and hot,  
And Pudding and Dump●ing's burnt to pot,  
Burnt to pot, burnt to pot,  
Till Pudding and Dumpling's burnt to th' Pot,  
Burnt to pot, etc.   

We'll drink off our Liquor while we can stand,  
And hey for the Honour of Old England,  
Old England old England,  
And hey for the Honour of Old England,  
Old England, etc.

Harvest home, Harvest home,  
They merrily roar out their Harvest home,  
They merrily roar, etc.
