Whisky You’re the Devil

Oh now brave boys, you're marching off to foreign wars
Drums a' beating, banners flying
The Devil, tonight my home you'll see
Love fare thee well
Oh, whisky you're the devil, you're leading me astray
Over hills and mountains and to Americay
You're sweeter, stronger, decenter than any man my way
Whisky you're my darling drunk or sober
If you've no taste for whisky, let wormwood steal your soul
If you're looking for false hearted girls
The Devil, tonight my home you'll see
Love fare thee well
The sea's too full of witchcraft, you'll sooner sink than swim
But if you reach the furthest shore
The Devil, tonight my home you'll see
Love fare thee well
They say new friends are silver, and old friends they are gold
But when your friends have drunk you dry
The Devil, tonight my home you'll see
Love fare thee well
