1 Pure, cold water!
We would recommend cold water;
'Tis the best of drinks for ev'ry son and daughter.
On the valley, or the plain, or the mountain,
There's no other drink compares with the fountain:
Cold water, cold water;
There is health in pure, cold water,
There is wealth in pure, cold water.
Bear away your wine and beer, and your cider;
Nature's right to rule must never be denied her.
We would recommend cold water, cold water,
Cold water, cold water,
We would recommend the pure, cold water!
