We come with a clatter and din, we come
We come with a trumpet and tray, we come,
We come we come with a tinkle of tin
To welcome our friends today.
hear the tinkle, tinkle, tinkle
Of the tin, of the tin
In the dining room, the kitchen
And the hall, and the hall
With a culinary chorus
We'll perpetuate the din
And our wishes for the weal of all.
Ten years ago, tis strange,
how swift theyears have flown
But you and I don't seem to change
Like some that we have known
We love our kith and kin
Our friends are kind and true
And all our hopes and loves and tin
Are just as bright as new.
We come with a clatter and din, we come
We come with a trumpet and tray, we come,
We come we come with a tinkle of tin
To welcome our friends today.
hear the tinkle, tinkle, tinkle
Of the tin, of the tin
In the dining room, the kitchen
And the hall, and the hall
With a culinary chorus
We'll perpetuate the din
And our wishes for the weal of all.
Then fill the cup today,
And raise britannia high
Enjoy their lustre while we may
Twill tarnish by and by.
The present let us prize
The future welcome in
With crystal, silver, golden joys
We'll never sigh for tin.
We come with a clatter and din, we come
We come with a trumpet and tray, we come,
We come we come with a tinkle of tin
To welcome our friends today.
hear the tinkle, tinkle, tinkle
Of the tin, of the tin
In the dining room, the kitchen
And the hall, and the hall
With a culinary chorus
We'll perpetuate the din
And our wishes for the weal of all.
