Thomas Weelkes - Come sirrah Jack ho

Come sirrah Jack ho
Fill some Tobacco
Bring a wire and some fire
Haste away, quick I say
Do not stay shun delay
For I drank none good today

I swear that this Tobacco
It's perfect Trinidado
By the very Mass never was
Better gear than is here
By the rood, for the blood
It is very good 'tis very good

Fill the pipe once more
My brains dance trenchmore
It is heady I am giddy
My head and brains, back and reins
Joints and veins, from all pains
It doth well purge and make clean

Then those that do condemn it
Or such as not commend it
Never were so wise to learn
Good Tobacco to discern
Let them go, pluck a crow
And not know, as I do
The sweet of Trinidado
