about

Words and music by Pat Westmacott
Featuring Bern Kinnear on Bass

lyrics

Sing us a vs of good times that we’ve had
Things could be worse
I’m drinking whisky with the lads
Oh this pint ain’t my first, and it won’t be my last
Things could be worse
I’m drinking whisky with the lads

The jokes that we tell, have all been told before
But everyone among us will be rolling on the floor
Cause there ain’t a one among us, inclined to act his age
This one’s for the choir and best damn times up on the stage

Craig has intent to make beer shoot like a hose
Put the end of his friend nae ass Carter’s nose
And when John is pouring whisky, I know I’ll wake up sick
It happens every fuckin time cause I don’t learn so quick

These are my birds of a feather
Oh the times are good when the old crew’s together

It’s long past time to go, so let’s have another round
And pay the price with our wives when we show up around
Half past 2 hours late, and stumble in like a disgrace
Cause whisky with the lads puts a smile on my face
