Summary: That old demon drink




I say no, but he says yes
Oh my darlin', I confess
That the night is very young
Too much time to come undone
One more drink, one glass of wine
For we may be short of time
One more dream, one pint of hope

And my soul and body ache
To fall asleep and dream and stink
Of my devil demon drink
I say no but he says yes
Oh my darlin', I confess…
