| 作词 : Hallett | |
| I drank 16 doubles for the price of one | |
| tryin to find the courage to talk to one | |
| I asked her for a dance, not a second glance | |
| my night had just begun | |
| Well I'd drink to the father or the holy ghost | |
| i'm kneeling at the alter of my nightly post | |
| so I'll raise a glass, not the first or last | |
| come join me in this toast | |
| Chorus | |
| because the old black rum's got a hold on me | |
| like a dog wrapped 'round my leg | |
| and the old black rum's got a hold on me | |
| will I live for another day(heyyyyy)will I live for another day | |
| Well the queen of George Street just went walkin' on by | |
| walkin' on by with some guy who don't care | |
| that she stood in line since half past nine | |
| and spent three hours on her hair | |
| (aahh) | |
| Her friend is lookin' at me with an evil grin | |
| I think a bloody racket might soon begin | |
| I must have said something to the George Street queen | |
| her boys are joining in. | |
| Chorus | |
| So I drank all of my money and I slept out in the rain | |
| Everyday is different, but the nights they're all the same | |
| You never see the sun on the old black rum | |
| but I know I'm gonna do it again. | |
| Chorus x2 | |
| will I live for another day |
