Whisky For My Johnnie - Collected from James G. Bounds by George Gardiner
(GG/1/14/880) – Tune & Text –14 Aug 1907 Portsmouth Workhouse, Hampshire UK


Oh. Whisky is the life of Man,
Whisky, Johnnie
Whisky is the life of man,
Whisky for my Johnnie.

Oh, Whisky in an old tin can

Whisky stands behind the bar, etc

Whisky made my old girl drunk

Whisky killed my old dadda

Whisky made me pawn my clothes

Whisky got me a broken nose

Whisky made me go to sea

But I drink whisky when I can.
