The Drinking Song Rod Stewart
From the album Another Country
Tabbed by Roj Vincent
Intro:
Like everybody else, I like a night on the town.
I love a bella vino when the sun goes down.
But unfortunately, one thing has led to another (yes it has).
I ve struggled more than once to put the key in the door,
Fallen flat on my face on the disco floor,
But if I die, I m gonna die laughing. (Now listen)
I ve sung and I ve danced in the streets of Paree,
Discovered my trousers up an old oak tree,
I ve walked half naked through the hotel continental. (But you know what)
I m glad I did what I did when I did it,
Make no mistake about that.
And i m glad I said what I said when I said it, Oh yeah.
It was the drink that made me do it.
I know sometimes I blew it.
It was the drink that made me do it.
Every time, Every time.
Instrumental break:
I ve skipped a light fandango, and I ve lost my socks.
Even spent the night in a telephone box.
I m a sucker when I hear "one more for the road."
I ve woken up with women that I hardly knew,
Wine is the cause of silly tattoos.
I ve raised hell, where hell didn t need no raising.
But I m glad I did what I did when I did it,
Make no mistake about that.
And I m glad I said what I said, Oh yeah.
It was the drink that made me do it.
Sometimes I guess I blew it.
It was the drink that made me do it.
Every time.
Oh yeah
Break:
Ahh yeah
So, the moral of the story. Stick to tea and cakes.
If ya take to the drinking you re gonna make mistakes
I wouldn t change a thing, if I could do it again. (No I wouldn t)
It was the drink that make me do it.
Sometimes I knew I blew it.
It was the drink that made me do it.
Every time. Every time.
Oh yeah
Blame the drink
A great little song........... enjoy... :-)
