Toast of the Schowlar*

 

Grady McMurtry

 

2 March 1942

 

 

Skoal to the Norse man!

 

Skoal!

 

Skoal to the Souse man!

 

Skoal!

 

Skoal to the Yeast man!

 

Skoal!

 

Skoal to the Welsh man!

 

Skoal!

 

Scowl and Skoal and School together

Whose to know at when or whether

Rain or shine of sun or weather

He’s not born who’s built to tether

You and I, birds of a feather.

 

Skoal! Skoal! Skoal!
