Letra de 'I'll Have A Beer' de Jolly Rogers

As a boy I led a sheltered life
The son of a farmer and his wife
I met a friend one day in town
Who offered to buy me a round
So we found a pub they call the Drum and Pipe

Barkeep, he asked what will it be
So I said I think I'll have a tea
My friend said that will never do
Told me that I should have a brew
You wouldn't believe the effect it's had on me

Now at every tavern, bar, and pub I go into
I know just exactly what I should do
I say in a voice that all can hear
Sir I think that I will have a beer
Yes, sir I think that I will have a beer

Since then I have traveled far and wide
I have been all over the countryside
One day, while out, on a walk
I met a Scot who liked to talk
And he told me of a drink I've never tried

Now at every tavern, bar, and pub I go into
I know just exactly what I should do
I say in a voice that all can hear
Sir I think I'll have a scotch and beer
Yes, sir I think I'll have a scotch and beer

Spent a Summer on a schooner out at sea
And one old sailor took a shine to me
He warned me of the awful food
But shared a drink he said was good
I'm gonna have to say that I agree

Now at every tavern, bar, and pub I go into
I know just exactly what I should do
I say in a voice that all can hear
Sir I think I'll have rum, scotch, and beer
Yes, sir I think I'll have rum, scotch, and beer

So when I made it back home again
I met up with a dear, old friend
He took me with him too his pub
Which seemed to be a fancy pub
And taught me about the drink of gentlemen

Now at every tavern, bar, and pub I go into
I know just exactly what I should do
I say in a voice that all can hear
Sir I'll have gin, rum, scotch, and beer
Yes, sir I'll have gin, rum, scotch, and beer

I then met a nice, Irish lad
Who said that he thought it was sad
While I've tried all the rest
He said that I had missed the best
And he offered me the last of what he had

Now at every tavern, bar, and pub I go into
I know just exactly what I should do
I say in a voice that all can hear
I'll have whiskey, gin, rum, scotch, and beer
Yes, I'll have whiskey, gin, rum, scotch, and beer
I''ll have whiskey, gin, rum, scotch and beer
I'll have whiskey, gin, rum, scotch and beer

Whiskey
Gin, rum
Scotch and
A beer
