A long time ago, way back in history,
When all they had to drink was nothing but cups of tea,
Along came a mane by the name of Charlie Mopps,
And he invented a wonderful drink and he made it out of hops

Chorus:
He might have been an Admiral,
a Sultan or a King
And to his praises we shall always sing.
Look what he has done for us: he's filled us with cheer.
God bless Charlie Mopps, the man who invented beer beer beer tiddily beer beer beer

A barrel of malt a bucket of hops
and add some yeast
put it all together and let it ferment and swell
When it's brewed and ready at 11 o'clock we'll stop
for 5 short seconds we'll remember Charlie Mopps

(Put your local pubs here)
At Carnsies and the Flat Iron
and Pickle Bill's as well
One thing I can be sure of
It's Charlie's beer they sell
Some come along you lucky lads
at 11 o'clock we'll stop
for 5 short seconds we'll remember Charlie Mopps

Her's another version which was sent to me:

A long time ago, way back in history,
When all they had to drink was nothing but cups of tea,
Along came a man by the name of Charlie Mopps,
And he invented a wonderful drink and he made it out of hops (hops hops hops hops, etc)

Chorus:
He might have been an Admiral, a Sultan or a King
And to his praises we shall always sing.
Look what he has done for us: he's filled our hearts with cheer.
God bless Charlie Mopps, the man who invented beer beer beer tiddily beer beer beer

When beer was first invented it was very very dear,
Fancy paying a chaser for a glorious glass of beer,
People of the day were foolish so they say,
They used to chew the hops and throw the beer away.

A bushel of hops, a barrel of malt, you stir it around with a stick
The sort of lubrication to make your engine tick
40 pints of wallop a day will keep away the quacks
It's only fourpence ha'penny a pint and a shilling and tuppence in tax

Chorus:
He might have been an Admiral, a Sultan or a King
And to his praises we shall always sing.
Look what he has done for us: he's filled our hearts with cheer.
God bless Charlie Mopps, the man who invented beer beer beer tiddily beer beer beer

Here in [substitute your own locale/town] we drink beer a lot.
Down at [substitute your pub] on a Saturday night, the pace gets rather hot.
We'll drink a pint, or sometimes two, it's cool and fresh and clear:
God bless Charlie Mopps, the man who invented beer.

The purest bar, the fanciest pub, this hole in the wall as well
One thing you can be sure of, it's Charlie's beer they sell
So come on all you lucky lads, eleven o'clock she stops
Quiet for five short seconds to remember Charlie Mopps... 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

Chorus:
He might have been an Admiral, a Sultan or a King
And to his praises we shall always sing.
Look what he has done for us: he's filled our hearts with cheer.
God bless Charlie Mopps, the man who invented beer beer beer tiddily beer beer beer

You can talk about inventors of today being up to date,
Our animated pictures and our photographs so great,
But the greatest inventor of them all, to me is plain and clear,
It's Charlie Mopps the man who invented beer.

The day that Charlie died he came to Heaven's gate,
He said to old St Peter now tell me how I rate,
Saint Peter looked at him and said, "now who the Hell are you",
He said I'm Charlie Mopps, Saint Peter said straight through.

Chorus:
He might have been an Admiral,a Sultan or a King
And to his praises we shall always sing.
Look what he has done for us: he's filled our hearts with cheer.
God bless Charlie Mopps, the man who invented beer beer beer tiddily beer beer beer

We'll all miss Charlie Mopps!
