Whisky Johnny—Shanty
Bob Roberts

O whisky is the life of man,
Whisky—Johnny,
O I'll get whisky where I can,
Whisky for me Johnny.

O whisky here and whisky there,
Whisky—Johnny,
O I'll get whisky everywhere,
Whisky for me Johnny

O whisky made me pawn my clothes,
And whisky gave me this red nose.

O whisky killed my poor old dad,
And whisky drove my mother mad.

O whisky hot and whisky cold,
O whisky new and whisky old.

O whisky up and whisky down,
O whisky all around the town.

O champagne's good and rum is free,
But whisky's good enough for me.
