wish you were beer - the jolly rogers lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
when i come home, you are there to greet me
but i’m at sea for six months or more
and though you’re at home
i don’t feel so alone
knowing there’s a pub on each shore

[verse 2]
in each pub there’s a magic elixir
that’s brewed up from barley and hops
even though you’re back there
i pretend that you’re here
as i order a beer at each stop!
[chorus]
from madagascar to spain
and along the spanish main
i drink a pint and think of you my dear
oh, how i miss ya, i wish that i could kiss ya
oh, how i wish you were beer!

[verse 3]
the first pub i hit was in the port of nassau
i was lonely and homesick, it’s true
so there is no debate
the beer here is just great
i’d rather have my lips wrapped ’round you!

[verse 4]
st. thomas was our next port of call
and i admit that i was feeling blue!
but those beers raised a smile
’cause in differing style
i love how they go down just like you!

[chorus]
from madagascar to spain
and along the spanish main
i drink a pint and think of you my dear
oh, how i miss ya, i wish that i could kiss ya
oh, how i wish you were beer!
[verse 5]
we made a brief stop in the port of new haven
where i asked for the brew i adore
they were all out of mugs
but said “take these two jugs,”
beers remind me of you more and more!

[verse 6]
i knew this trip had lasted too long
and though beer helps it has been a trial
when i saw that round cask
i swear i nearly asked
if they could leave us alone for a while

[chorus]
from madagascar to spain
and along the spanish main
i drink a pint and think of you my dear
oh, how i miss ya, i wish that i could kiss ya
oh, how i wish you were beer!

[verse 7]
now that i’ve done with all of my adventures
i come about and sail straight for home
i skip right down the dock
and on our door i’ll knock
and i promise nevermore that i’ll roam!
[verse 8]
now every day i’m home with my lover
not the pubs or sea but just here…
don’t get me wrong
i missed you when i was gone
but now i really wish you were beer!

[chorus]
from madagascar to spain
and along the spanish main
i drank a pint and thought of you my dear
oh, how i missed ya, and that i could kiss ya
oh, how i wish you were beer!
oh, how i missed ya, and that i could kiss ya
oh, how i wish you were beer!
i really, really wish you were beer!
i think i’ll go and get me a beer!
