Chug-A-Lug Pub Song

When the day dwindles pale...with my tall mug of ale I'm a weepy ole' fool , it is quite plain to see I'll shed many a tear ore' the wee smallest thing I am known to spill oceans, with a tall chug-a-lug There'll be tubs splashing tears, all over your head! For,.......... I love my old mates and I'm lovin' my brew I have a dilemma, it's the bluest of blues but I can't decide which I'm holdin' more dear a fine league of shipmates or my lagers of beer I moon over moonlight shining over the sill While I drink with my matey, who is over the hill O', ......he'll tell me a story of his granny who's ill And my eyes will start wellin' and a river will spill! For,.......... I love my old mates and I'm lovin' my brew I have a dilemma, it's the bluest of blues but I can't decide which I'm holdin' more dear a fine league of shipmates or my lagers of beer There is lint in my eye over sharing goodbyes I'll lament just a bit over missing Ma's pies When a goat has been bitten by a snake that is long I will leak like a bucket ..for a world that's gone wrong If I must kick the bucket, so what if I do? And if there's a heaven and the devil's not due You'll know for sure I have a smile upon my face from seeing my shipmates and from drinkin' my brew! For,.......... I love my old mates and I'm lovin' my brew I have a dilemma, it's the bluest of blues but I can't decide which I'm holdin' more dear a fine league of shipmates or my lagers of beer !! _______________________________________________ For Cyndi's "Raise the Roof Pub Song" Contest

I got a question my friend...Is there ANYTHING you can't do and be the best at it?...Speaking (singing) of songs,Tina Turner said (sang) it best... 'You're simply the best, better than all the rest'...

THe quality of this write demanded top marks...the alliteration of league/lager and bold blue. You "mate" feel... yup, good stuff! Check out my blog, chum, when you have the time... the winners will make you chuckle.
