Drinkin All The Day
Cheers to Life's Journey: A Toast to Friendship and Endless Days
Lyrics
May the road rise up to meet ya now
May you encounter success and fortune on your journey
Wherever you may be
Regardless of your location
Oh and may God hold you in his hand
May God protect and guide you
Until you come to me
Until the time you reunite with me
And like the blackbird on the wall
Drawing a comparison to the fleeting nature of a blackbird
Now we both will fly away
Both individuals will depart together
To where the beer and whiskey flow on
To a place where alcohol flows abundantly
Every single day
Every day is filled with drinking
And we will, We will go
Expressing determination to engage in continuous drinking
Drinkin’ all the day
Throughout the entire day
We’ll stop at every pub in town
Planning to visit every pub in town
‘Till the room begins to sway
Continuing to drink until the surroundings become unsteady
We’ll stop at every pub in town
Reiterating the intention to visit all pubs in town
Just to while the time away
Engaging in this activity to pass the time
And to have a drink with dear old friends
Sharing a drink with long-time friends
Who will always make you stay
Friends who always insist on your company
And drink until you can no longer
Continuing to drink until one is unable to stand
Stand and walk away
Reaching the point of intoxication and leaving
Oh people come and people go
Reflecting on the transient nature of relationships
And time it slips away
Time passes inexorably
And there ain’t a damn thing you can do
Helpless in the face of the passage of time
Not a damn thing you can say
No control or influence over the inevitable
And when the sky is cloudy love
During challenging times and unclear paths
And the road is not so clear
Expressing readiness to be a supportive presence
You know I’ll sit down beside you
Committing to companionship during difficult times
And drink twenty pints of beer
Emphasizing a lighthearted approach, suggesting a considerable amount of drinking
