Whiskey Is The Life Of Man
Bellowhead

Whiskey is the life of man

Whiskey from an old tin can

I like whiskey hot and strong

And I'll drink whiskey all day long

Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, rise it up from down below

Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, rise it up from down below

Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, whiskey, whiskey, whiskey-oh

Up aloft this yard must go

Come rise him up from down below


I'll drink it hot, I'll drink it cold

I'll drink it new, I'll drink it old

Some like whisket, some like beer

I wish I had a barrel here

Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, rise it up from down below

Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, rise it up from down below

Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, whiskey, whiskey, whiskey-oh

Up aloft this yard must go

Come rise him up from down below


Whiskey killed my sister Sue


And whiskey killed my brother too

Whiskey killed my poor old Dad

And whiskey drove my Mother mad

Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, rise it up from down below

Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, rise it up from down below

Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, whiskey, whiskey, whiskey-oh

Up aloft this yard must go

Come rise him up from down below


If whiskey comes to near my nose

It's 'up-she-comes' and 'down-she-goes'

A glass of grog for every man

And a bottle full for the Shantyman

Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, rise it up from down below

Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, rise it up from down below

Whiskey-oh, Johnny-oh, whiskey, whiskey, whiskey-oh

Up aloft this yard must go

Come rise him up from down below
