Love quickly is pall'd,
Love quickly is pall'd,<br>
Tho' with labour 'tis gain'd;
Tho' with labour 'tis gain'd;<br>
Wine never does cloy
Wine never does cloy<br>
Tho' with ease 'tis obtain'd.
Tho' with ease 'tis obtain'd.<br>
We sing while you sigh,
We sing while you sigh,<br>
We laugh while you weep;
We laugh while you weep;<br>
Love robs you of rest,  
Love robs you of rest,<br>
Wine lulls us asleep.  
Wine lulls us asleep.

Love quickly is pall'd,
Tho' with labour 'tis gain'd;
Wine never does cloy
Tho' with ease 'tis obtain'd.
We sing while you sigh,
We laugh while you weep;
Love robs you of rest,
Wine lulls us asleep.
