Bartenders

A skilled bartender can make any drink.
It can be colored green, red, white, or pink.
With a little ice and cocktail shaker,
he or she can be quite a drink maker.
They stock many different kinds of whiskey,
from scotch, bourbon, rye, tequila, brandy,
any flavor of schnapps, vodka, and gin.
They’ll make it up, whatever mood you’re in.
They have many mixers and some juices.
All of them have quite a few great uses.
But if all you’re in the mood for is beer,
that’s no problem.  They have lots of that here.
