I've traveled all over this world
  And now to another I go
  And I know that good quarters are waiting
  To welcome old Rosin the Beau
  To welcome old Rosin the Beau
  To welcome old Rosin the Beau
  And I know that good quarters are waiting
  To welcome old Rosin the Beau
  
  When I'm dead and laid out on the counter
  A voice you will hear from below
  Saying "Send down a hogshead of whiskey
  To drink with old Rosin the Beau"
  To drink with old Rosin the Beau"
  To drink with old Rosin the Beau"
  Saying "Send down a hogshead of whiskey
  To drink with old Rosin the Beau"
  
  Then get a half dozen stout fellows
  And stack them all up in a row
  Let them drink out of half gallon bottles
  To the memory of Rosin the Beau
  To the memory of Rosin the Beau
  To the memory of Rosin the Beau
  Let them drink out of half gallon bottles
  To the memory of Rosin the Beau
  
  Then get this half dozen stout fellows
  And let them all stagger and go
  And dig a great hole in the meadow
  And in it put Rosin the Beau
  And in it put Rosin the Beau
  And in it put Rosin the Beau
  And dig a great hole in the meadow
  And in it put Rosin the Beau
  
  Then get ye a couple of bottles
  Put one at me head and me toe
  With a diamond ring scratch upon them
  The name of old Rosin the Beau
  The name of old Rosin the Beau
  The name of old Rosin the Beau
  With a diamond ring scratch upon them
  The name of old Rosin the Beau
  
  I've only this one consolation
  As out of this world I go
  I know that the next generation
  Will resemble old Rosin the Beau
  Will resemble old Rosin the Beau
  Will resemble old Rosin the Beau
  I know that the next generation
  Will resemble old Rosin the Beau
  
  I fear that old tyrant approaching
  That cruel remorseless old foe
  And I lift up me glass in his honor
  Take a drink with old Rosin the Beau
  Take a drink with old Rosin the Beau
  Take a drink with old Rosin the Beau
  And I lift up me glass in his honor
  Take a drink with old Rosin the Beau
