Buy Us A Drink Lyrics by Roaring Jack

0

Here’s to the soldiers that march tae the wars
With lovely tin hats and long woollen drawers
The colonel says right lads, over the top
Then he stands back tae watch while the poor buggers drop
Buy us a drink and we’ll sing you a song
Of the chances you missed and the love that went wrong
If you can’t stand a schooner, stand us a ten
We’ll knock it straight down and we’ll sing it again
There’s girls in the parlour there’s girls in the bars
They paint on the smile so you don’t see the scars
They get lots of offers and not much respect
For raisin’ three kids on a government cheque
In comes the landlord so fat and content
Comes round in his Volvo to pick up the rent
Then off with his wad tae recline by the pool
He leaves you tae rot in this nutsty old hole
It’s the taste of the whiskey tae tell you the truth
Has shortened me days and wasted me youth
Be kind tae the health, sir, do it no harm
Put a pint o’ the black on the end of me arm
