Jakey's Gin
Great Big Sea


When GI was a youFng man I wGas let astray
I Gmet with a Fbody down Cin Logy GBay
We Gwent out in a Fweather, we woreG out our shoe,
And Gup Kingsway Froad for a Cdrink or Gtwo

Chorus: G F G
Drink 'er up boys its well after ten
Drink 'er Gup boys its Fwell after Gten

Some people say that the pinky is fine
Others will swear by a drop of moonshine
But as for myself I'm a bottle of each,
mixed in with a gallon of dipper or screech

CBoRUS

It's the old shavin' lotion thats made me this way
Sweeter than Pepsi and stronger than tea
And when in the evening when we're feeling fine
We'll stop into Jakey's for icon and shine

CBoRUS

Its the old shavin' lotion thats made me this way
Sweeter than Pepsi and stronger than tea
And when in the morning when I'm feeling rough
I curse, ol' Jakey who sold me this stuff
CBoRUS x 2


(Some doubt as to the exact chord progression in lines 3 and 4 of each verse,
but it's something tpo start from)
