G
Well I like a full bodied lager as much as the next hard working man
G
The taste of suds while dealing stud I can surely understand
C
Trucker speed and yes indeed it`s nearly gettin` light
G F G
It`s time to switch to whiskey we been drinkin` beer all night
G
You can fish for bass and cut your grass and drink that purple gas
G
Sho` nuff, but the powerful stuff that`ll knock you on your ass
G
Is like diesel fuel, and nobody`s fool is gonna wanna get left behind
G F G
It`s time to switch to whiskey we been drinkin` beer all night
CHORUS:
G F G
Well it`s time to switch to whiskey we been drinkin` beer all night
G D
We`re all half dead and them that`s left is spoilin` for a fight
G C
Well, who`d `a thunk, we`re quit drinkin` drunk, now boys don`t spare the rye
G F G
It`s time to switch to whiskey, we been drinkin beer all night
I`ve been splittin` eights and hittin` my straights in the cardrooms of the world
Chasin` skirt and gettin` hurt but now I got a card playin` girl
But man she gets excited when the deal don`t come out right
It`s time to switch to whiskey we been drinking beer all night
Chorus
Lead
Well I`ve heard it said that you can get some heat in Irish pubs
Servin` Jamesons to an Orangeman and Bushmills to his cuz
Well here`s what you do with Tullamore Dew, you can meet `em both halfway
It`s time to switch to whiskey they`ve been drinkin` beer all day
Chorus
rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cried...
