here's a drink - beerside scoundrels lyrics
[chorus]
here’s a drink to our sweethearts
and here’s one to our wives
here’s a drink to all our fallen mates
we’ve had to leave behind
here’s a drink to the taxmen
may they all burn in h*ll
here’s a drink to better days to come
and to that we say drink well
[verse 1]
well, i’ve known sorrow
i’ve known passion
i’ve even known some joy
i’ve known the pain of bitter loss
that [?] men most enjoy
but throughout all my travels
i’ve had one consistent friend
and that’s the sweet of [?] found at the bottle’s end
[chorus]
here’s a drink to our sweethearts
and here’s one to our wives
here’s a drink to all our fallen mates
we’ve had to leave behind
here’s a drink to the taxmen
may they all burn in h*ll
here’s a drink to better days to come
and to that we say drink well
[verse 2]
i have a wife i left in dublin
that one day i’ll return
for now i must [?] myself
with sending what i earn
she knows she is my only love
she knows i will be true
and she’s happy in her ignorance
of all that i might do
[chorus]
here’s a drink to our sweethearts
and here’s one to our wives
here’s a drink to all our fallen mates
we’ve had to leave behind
here’s a drink to the taxmen
may they all burn in h*ll
here’s a drink to better days to come
and to that we say drink well
[verse 3]
i’m a scoundrel and a rover
and i’ve led a simple life
i’ll own my foolish choices
and i’ll own my well and strife
the only comfort i found now
is at the bottom of this glass
and anyone who’s shouting “stop!”
can go and kiss my ass
[chorus]
here’s a drink to our sweethearts
and here’s one to our wives
here’s a drink to all our fallen mates
we’ve had to leave behind
here’s a drink to the taxmen
may they all burn in h*ll
here’s a drink to better days to come
and to that we say drink well
