Lyrics
- Drink! Drink! Drink!
To eyes that are Bright as stars
When they’re shining on me
Drink to them
Drink! Drink! Drink!
To lips that are Red and sweet
As the fruit on the tree
Drink to them
Here’s a hope that those bright eyes will shine
Lovingly, longingly, soon into mine
May those lips that are red and sweet
Tonight with joy my own lips meet
Drink! Drink! Let the toast start
May young hearts never part
Drink! Drink! Drink!
Let ev’ry true lover salute his sweetheart
- Drink! Drink! Drink!
To arms that are White and warm
As a rose in the sun
Drink to them
Drink! Drink! Drink!
To hearts that will Love one
Only when I am the one
Drink to them
Here’s a hope that those soft arms will twine
Tenderly, trustingly, soon around mine
May she give me a priceless boon
Her love beneath the sweet May moon
Drink! Drink! Let the toast start
May young hearts never part
Drink! Drink! Drink!
Let ev’ry true lover salute his sweetheart
Let’s drink
