1
I drank sixteen doubles for the price of one
2
Trying to find the courage to talk to one
3
I asked her for a dance
4
Not a second glance
5
My night had just begun
6
Well I drink to the father and the holy ghost
7
I'm kneeling at the alter of my nightly post
8
So I'll raise a glass, not the first nor last
9
Come join me in this toast
10
[Chorus:]
11
Because the old black rum's got a hold on me
12
Like a dog wrapped round my leg
13
And the old black rum's got a hold on me
14
Will I live for another day?
15
Hey, Will I live for another day?
16
Well the queen of George street just went walking on by
17
Walking on by with some guy who don't care
18
That she stood in line
19
Since half past nine
20
And spent three hours on her hair (On her hair!)
21
Well her friend is looking at me with an evil grin
22
I think the bloody racket might soon begin
23
I must have said some thing
24
To the George street queen
25
The boys are joining in!
26
[Chorus:]
27
So I drank all of my money
28
And I slept out in the rain
29
Everyday is different but the nights they're all the same
30
You never see the sun on the old black rum
31
But I know I'm gonna do it again!
32
[Chorus:] 2x
