"For beer and ale, that never fail,
to win the first prize ribbons,
join the crowd that shouts aloud,
gimme gimme gimme gimme Gibbons!
G-I-B-B-O-N-S takes the first place ribbons,
if it's Gibbons it's good,
so the next time you should,
say gimme gimme gimme gimme Gibbons!!

G-I-B-B-O-N-S,
Pure the bright, light Gibbons!
If it's Gibbon's, It's Good.
So every time you should say "Gimmie, gimmie, gimmie Gibbon's!"
