Martin said to his man
Fie man, fie!
O Martin said to his man
Who's the fool now?
Martin said to his man
Fill thou the cup and I the can,
Thou hasst well drunken, man,
Who's the fool now?

I see a sheep shearing corn.
Fie man, fie!
I see a sheep shearing corn.
Who's the fool now?
I see a sheep shearing corn,
And a cuckold blow his horn.
Thou hast well drunken, man,
Who's the fool now?

I see a man in the moon.
Fie man, fie!
I see a man in the moon.
Who's the fool now?
I see a man in the moon
Clouting of Saint Peter's shoon.
Thou hast well drunken, man,
Who's the fool now?

I see a hare chase a hound.
Fie man, fie!
I see a hare chase a hound.
Who's the fool now?
I see a hare chase a hound
Twenty mile above the ground.
Thou hast well drunken, man,
Who's the fool now?
I see a goose ring a hog.
Fie man, fie!

I see a goose ring a hog.
Who's the fool now?
I see a goose ring a hog,
And a snail that did bite a dog.
Thou hast well drunken, man,
Who's the fool now?
I see a mouse catch the cat.
Fie man, fie!

I see a mouse catch the cat.
Who's the fool now?
I see a mouse catch the cat
And the cheese to eat the rat.
Thou hast well drunken, man,
Who's the fool now?
