Have A Cuppa Tea Lyrics - Safe Upon The Shore - Great Big Sea

Granny's always ravin' and rantin' 

And she's always puffin and pantin' 

And she's always screamin' and shoutin' 

And she's always brewin' up tea 

Grand pappy's never late for his dinner 

'Cause he loves his leg of beef 

And he washes it down with a brandy 

And a fresh made cup of tea 

Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea 

Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea 

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, rosie lea 

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, rosie lea 

If you feel a bit under the weather 

If you feel a little bit peeved 

Take granny's standby potion 

For any old cough or wheeze 

It's a cure for hepatitis 

It's a cure for chronic insomnia 

It's a cure for tonsillitis 

And for water on the knee 

Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea 

Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea 

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, rosie lea 

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, rosie lea 

Tea in the morning, tea in the evening, tea at suppertime 

You get tea when it's raining, tea when it's snowing 

Tea when the weathers fine 

You get tea as a mid-day stimulant 

You get tea with your afternoon tea 

For any old ailment or disease 

For Christ sake have a cuppa tea 

Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea 

Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea 

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, rosie lea 

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, rosie lea 

Whatever the situation, whatever the race or creed 

Tea knows no segregation, no class nor pedigree 

It knows no motivations, no sector organization 

It knows no one religion nor political belief 

Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea 

Have a cuppa tea, have a cuppa tea 

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, rosie lea 

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, rosie lea
