1 Our youthful hearts with temp’rance burn,
Away, away the bowl,
From dram shops all our steps we turn,
Away, away the bowl,
Goodbye to rum and all its harms,
Farewell the wine cup’s boasted charms,
Away the bowl, away the bowl,
Away, away the bowl!
2 See how the stagg’ring drunkard reels,
Away, away the bowl,
Alas! the mis’ry he reveals,
Away, away the bowl,
Goodbye to rum and all its harms,
Farewell the wine cup’s boasted charms,
Away the bowl, away the bowl,
Away, away the bowl!
3 No alcohol we’ll buy or sell,
Away, away the bowl,
The tippler’s offer we repel,
Away, away the bowl,
United in a temp’rance band,
We’re join’d in heart, we’re join’d in hand,
Away the bowl, away the bowl,
Away, away the bowl!
