WHISKY Oh! Whisky is the life of man, Whisky -- Johnny' Oh! Whisky is the life of man, O! Whisky for my Johnny. I drunk Whisky when I can, Whisky, &c. I drink it out of an old tin can. O, &c. Whiskey made me pawn my clothes, Whisky gave me a broken nose. Whisky killed my poor old dad, Whisky drove my mother mad. Whisky caused mr much abuse, Whisky put me in the Calabouse Whisky fills a man with care Whisky makes a man abear. Up aloft this yard must co, Let the wind blow high or low. One more pull, my song is done, Pull away like a son od a gun. There are several spurious versions of this "story", which we have been careful to keep clear of. One or two lines in one of such run thus-- Whisky hot and whisky cold Whisky, &c. Whisky here and whisky there, &c. I go to the bottom, and I suck, suck, suck, &c, &c.
