Lyrics
Whiskey is the life of man,
Whiskey, Johnny!
O, whiskey is the life of man,
Whiskey for my Johnny O!
O, I drink whiskey when I can
Whiskey, Johnny!
I drink whiskey from an old tin can,
Whiskey for my Johnny O!
Whiskey gave me a broken nose!
Whiskey, Johnny!
Whiskey made me pawn my clothes,
Whiskey for me Johnny O!
Whiskey drove me around Cape Horn.
Whiskey, Johnny!
It was many a month when I was gone,
Whiskey for my Johnny O!
I thought I heard the old man say;
Whiskey, Johnny!
I'll treat my crew in a decent way,
Whiskey for my Johnny O!
A glass of grog for every man!
Whiskey, Johnny!
And a bottle for the chanteyman.
Whiskey for my Johnny O!
Whiskey, Johnny!
O, whiskey is the life of man,
Whiskey for my Johnny O!
O, I drink whiskey when I can
Whiskey, Johnny!
I drink whiskey from an old tin can,
Whiskey for my Johnny O!
Whiskey gave me a broken nose!
Whiskey, Johnny!
Whiskey made me pawn my clothes,
Whiskey for me Johnny O!
Whiskey drove me around Cape Horn.
Whiskey, Johnny!
It was many a month when I was gone,
Whiskey for my Johnny O!
I thought I heard the old man say;
Whiskey, Johnny!
I'll treat my crew in a decent way,
Whiskey for my Johnny O!
A glass of grog for every man!
Whiskey, Johnny!
And a bottle for the chanteyman.
Whiskey for my Johnny O!
