"The Drinking Song" lyrics
"The Drinking Song"
Like everybody else, I like a night on the town
I love a bellavino when the sun goes down
But unfortunately, one thing has led to another (yes it has)
I've struggled more than once to put the key in the door
Fallen flat on my face on the disco floor
But if I die, I'm gonna die laughing. (Now listen)
I've sung and I've danced on the streets of Paris
Discovered my trousers up an old oak tree
I've walked half naked through the hotel continental. (But you know what)
Well, I'm glad I did what I did when I did it
Make no mistake about that
And I'm glad I said what I said when I said it, oh yeah
It was the drink that made me do it
I know sometimes I blew it
It was the drink that made me do it
Every time, every time
I've skipped a light fandango and I've lost my socks
Even spent the night in a telephone box
I'm a sucker when I hear "one more for the road."
I've woken up with women that I hardly knew
Wine is the cause of silly tattoos
I've raised hell, where hell didn't need no raising
But I'm glad I did what I did when I did it
Make no mistake about that
And I'm glad I said what I said, when I said it, oh yeah
It was the drink that made me do it
Sometimes I guess I blew it
It was the drink that made me do it
Every time
Oh yeah
Ah yeah
So, the moral of the story. Stick to tea and cakes
If ya take to the drinking you're gonna make mistakes
I wouldn't change a thing, if I could do it again. (No I wouldn't)
It was the drink that made me do it
Sometimes I knew I blew it
It was the drink that made me do it
Every time. Every time
Oh yeah
Blame the drink
