Lyrics
Piping down the valley's wild
Pipiing songs of pleasant glee
On a cloud I saw a child
And he said laughing at me
Pipe a song about some sheep
So I piped a song of pleasant cheer
Piper pipe that song again and I'll give you a can of beer

Drop thy pipe thy happy pipe
Sing that song of pleasant cheer
So I sang some stupid song
And he gave me that can of beer
Piper sit thee down and drink
But on that label read
I did not know what to think
But his demand I did heed

I read all the ingredients
Then I saw that born on date
And it was to my surprise
I said 1888
As he started to fly away
I asked him if he's coming back
He said he'd be back next year
I told him "BRING A SIX PACK!"
