Oh whiskey is the life of man
Always was since the world began
(after each verse):
Whiskey-o, Johnny-o
Rise her up from down below
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey-o
Up aloft this yard must go
John rise her up from down below
Oh whiskey made me pawn me clothes
Whiskey gave me a broken nose
I thought I heard the first mate say
I treats me crew in a decent way
Oh whiskey is the life of man
Whiskey from an old tin can
A glass of whiskey all around
And a bottle full for the shanty man
Writer(s): Dp, Tom Clancy
