Here's to the glorious high ball
that gives you strength and vim.
Here's to the scotch and rye,
fill the glass up to the brim.
Let jollity reign supremely
and drive away all care,
so fill up the bumper fully,
with the beverage fine and rare.
(chorus)
Drink the high ball at night fall,
be good fellows while you may,
for the morrow may bring sorrow
so be joyous and gay.
Shout the glories of good stories
while your heart brims full of fun.
Let the high ball make you merry.
Here's health to every one.
Cheer then to the high ball
let wit and humor flow.
See the sparkling mixture
bubble with a glow.
Then sing the song of glory.
Let mirth resound the air,
bring on the famous nectar.
Here's to fairest of the fair.
(repeat chorus)
