about

Tuckers Maltings is one of only a handful of floor maltings still producing malt in the traditional manner. They have been doing so in John Parnell Tuckers impressive building since 1900. An annual beer festival in April celebrates brewers from the UK.

lyrics

Sing
Seek them high, seek them low
Reeling on the avenue, putting on a show
One empty glass, is all you need
You can join the party for an equitable fee
Sing, la, la, la, la, la

Amongst the houses and under the trees
People are gathered to sample and greet
Rolling out barrels, under the beams
People have travelled to soak up this sweet feeling
All day and all night

Sing, la, la, la, la, la

Some yearn perfection of colour and depth
Some crave the numbness a time to forget
The young go in head strong, some kiss the floor
Proofs, will, experience, it’s not about scores
All day and all night

Sing, la, la, la, la, la
Sing, la, la, la, la, la
What we gonna do when the barrel runs dry
What we gonna say
What we gonna do

For interests of safety if you lose control
Make your excuses and leave by the doors
We’re just here to have a real good time
We welcome you, we welcome you all
We welcome you, we welcome you all

Sing, la, la, la, la, la

Seek them high, seek them low
Reeling on the avenue, putting on a show
One empty glass is all you need
We’d love to see you next time now we must ask you to leave.
