We’ve Had No Beer

We’ve had no beer,
We’ve had no beer today,
We’ve had no beer.
We’ve had no beer,
We’ve had no beer today,
We’ve had no beer,
We’ve had no beer today.

[Tune: Abide With Me]

We’ve had no beer,
We’ve had no beer today,
Where’s the use of living,
Tell us, tell us pray!
We’ve had no beer, is the burden of our lay,
We’ve had no beer, no beer since yesterday.
