Our sheep shearing done, 
to our master we come 
Who enjoys us to sport as we please
Then besıde plough and flail 
o'er our fleece and our pail, 
We'll boast of our fine wool and cheese
Chorus
Our sweet shepherdess then will we chorus amain 
And rejoice in our dairy maid's praise
Our sweet pretty dairy maid's praise.

Should your wishes incline 
to beer, cider, or wine
As you sit with your pipe at your ease
Their true flavour to find, 
always keep this in mind 
Clear your taste with a bit of old cheese
Chorus

Like Gloucestershire Noke, 
we'll sing swell joke 
And be merry whenever we please
Drink the fleece and the pail 
and the plough and the flail 
O'er a relish of best making cheese
Chorus

Join hands then, unite, 
with joy and delight
His happy occasion well seize
And with am'rous desire 
we will drink "MAY OUR SQUIRE 
LIVE LONG, AND ENJOY HIS OWN CHEESE"!
Chorus
