Whisky, Johnny!

by Bryn Terfel

Lyrics
Whiskey is the life of man
Whiskey, Johnny
Oh, whiskey from an old tin can
Whiskey for my Johnny
I like whiskey hot and strong
Whiskey, Johnny
And I'll drink whiskey all day long
Whiskey for my Johnny

Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Come rising up from down below
Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Come rising up from down below
Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Come rising up from down below
A bottle of this yard must go
Come rising up from down below

Oh, whiskey up and whiskey down
Whiskey, Johnny
And whiskey all around the town
Whiskey for my Johnny
Whiskey here and whiskey there
Whiskey, Johnny
It's I'll have whiskey everywhere
Whiskey for my Johnny

Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Come rising up from down below
Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Come rising up from down below
Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Come rising up from down below
A bottle of this yard must go
Come rising up from down below

I'll drink it hot, I'll drink it cold
Whiskey, Johnny
I'll drink it new, I'll drink it old
Whiskey for my Johnny
Some like whiskey, some like beer
Whiskey, Johnny
I wish I had a barrel here
Whiskey for my Johnny

Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Come rising up from down below
Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Come rising up from down below
Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Come rising up from down below
A bottle of this yard must go
Come rising up from down below

If whiskey comes too near my nose
Whiskey, Johnny
It's up she comes and down she goes
Whiskey for my Johnny
A glass of grog for every man
Whiskey, Johnny
And a bottle full for the shanty man
Whiskey for my Johnny

Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Come rising up from down below
Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Come rising up from down below
Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Come rising up from down below
A bottle of this yard must go
Come rising up from down below

Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Whiskey, oh Johnny, oh
Whiskey, oh
Come rising up from down below
