Come all ye jolly mummers
That mum in Christmas time.
Come join with us in chorus
Come join with us in rhyme.
Chorus-
And a-mumming we will go, we'll go,
And a-mumming we will go ;
With a white cockade in all our hats,
We'll go to t' gallant show.
It's of St. George's valour
So loudly let us sing;
An honour to his country
And a credit to his King.
Chorus-
And a-mumming we will go, we'll go,
And a-mumming we will go ;
We'll face all sorts of weather
Both rain, cold, wet, and snow.
It's of the King of Egypt,
That came to seek his son;
It's of the King of Egypt,
That made his sword so wan.
Chorus-
And a-mumming, etc.
It's of the black Morocco dog
That fought the fiery battle;
It's of the black Morocco dog
That made his sword to rattle.
Chorus-
And a-mumming, etc.
