Drink to this one!

lyrics

[Verse]
An old Scots-Irish man, oh he went to the pub,
With a pack of cigars he was after some grub.
Didn't quite drink but a beer once a night.
Till they gave him some whiskey and he started a fight.
He was well known as an old pervy guy,
If you started to talk, he'd go for an eye.
Bottle in hand and a fist on his arm
Lost friends in the war then he built a farm

[Chorus]
Drink for old Jimmy
The boy overseas
Let's thank god that's he's drinking
Where we love him to be
If you think that you can take more than
Just a few shots once a night
Buy old Pappy a drink
Your liver, it'll rot, alright

[Verse]
He could drink with the pros, fight with the rest,
He went to church daily so he could confess.
His liver was dead, his lungs they were black,
But boy old Jimmy, he could put them back.
Flask in his coat, he was always prepared,
More booze in his gut, than red in his hair.
Wild Turkey in hand, he could barely stand
He'd beat your ass if you messed with his friends.

[chorus]
Drink for old Jimmy
The boy over seas
Let's thank god that he's drinking
Where we love him to be
If you think that you can take more than
Just a few shots once a night
Buy old pappy a drink your liver it'll rot, alright
