One Drink More

Tomorrow there’s marriage in store
To the woman I truly adore
Let’s toast to my dear
With whiskey and beer
c’mon boys, just one drink more
This bachelor who’s just 24
I’ll soon have a wife
For the rest of my life
c’mon boys, just one drink more
I’ll say “I do” and then it’s done
The end of carefree life’s begun
Is she a Jekyll or is she a Hyde?
I’m far too young to take a bride
I looked in her eyes and I swore
I’d always fly right
--well, after tonight
c’mon boys, just one drink more
Until this night is yesterday
I’m with my friends this final night
Let’s stay until I see the light
So why should I walk out the door?
I’m safe in this bar
My troubles seem far
c’mon boys, just one drink more
Let’s nail both my shoes to the floor
My future depends
On if this night ends
c’mon boys, just one drink more
c’mon boys, just one drink more
