1
When I was a young man I was let astray
2
I met with a body down in Logy Bay
3
We went out in a weather
4
We wore out our shoes,
5
And up Kingsway road for a drink or two
6
[Chorus:]
7
Drink 'er up boys it's well after ten
8
Drink 'er up boys it's well after ten. [Repeat]
9
Some people say that the pinky is fine
10
Others will swear by a drop of moonshine
11
But as for myself I'm a bottle of each,
12
Mixed in with a gallon of dipper or screech
13
[Chorus:]
14
Its the old shavin' lotion that's made me this way
15
Sweeter than Pepsi and stronger than tea
16
And when in the evening when we're feeling fine
17
We'll stop into Jakey's for icon and shine
18
[Chorus:]
19
Its the old shavin' lotion that's made me this way
20
Sweeter than Pepsi and stronger than tea
21
And when in the morning when I'm feeling rough
22
I curse, ol' Jakey who sold me this stuff
23
[Chorus 2x]
