The Old Black Rum

FI drank sixteen doubles Cfor the pFrice of one
BTrying to find the cFourage to taGlk tCo one
BI asCked Fher for a dBancCe, not Fa second glance
CMy night had just begun

FWell I drink to Cthe FFather or the Holy Ghost
BI'm kneeling aFt the altar Gof Cmy nightly post
BSo I'Cll rFaise the glass, noBt thCe fiFrst or last
CCome join mFe in this toast


Chorus
CBecause the old black Frum's got a hold of me
FLike a dog wraBpped rouCnd my leg
CAnd the old black rum'Fs got a hold of me
FWell I'm heCre forF anoBther day, Hey
FWell I'm heCre forF another day


Well the queen of George Street just a walking on by.
Walking on by with some guy who don't care
That she stood in line since half past nine.
And spent three hours on her hair....on her hair
Well her friend is looking at me with an evil grin
I think the bloody racket might soon begin
I must have said something to the George Street queen
and boys I'm joining in

Chorus

So I drank all of my money and I slept out in the rain
Every day is different but the night are all the same
You never see the sun on the old black rum
But you know I'm gonna do it again
