| When I was young and handy in my prime |
| In taverns I would sit and bide my time |
| It’s there I met your company |
| I’d sit and drink my fill |
| It’s there that you took hold of me |
| I think you’ve got me still |
| You’re the foxy devil when you like |
| You set my mind at ease and then you strike |
| You set me head a-reeling |
| You make me shout and sing |
| My memory flees, I get no ease |
| Till I have a little drink |
| You’re the crafty rogue and that’s for sure |
| For your company there is no cure |
| I’ve squandered all my money |
| And the best days of my life |
| All on your charms, in spite of harm |
| In spite of peace and strife |
| Whiskey in the morning or at night |
| Gives strength to sing and dance, to love and fight |
| And so despite misfortune |
| I’ll take you as you are |
| The best of friends and enemies |
| The best I’ve known by far |
