Letra de Let the Boys Drink Whiskey

If the stage gets cold
And my eyes fall down
And never ever open up to let the light of town in
Let my bones lie down
Like a fallen cause
And let the ones who knew me best have a drink and write my song
And play it on a steel string
And mourn me in a low moan
Rosin up the morning
So the night can ring so true
Let the band play Dixie
And let the boys drink whiskey
Lay me in the ground
And hoist the Bonnie Blue
So here’s to Dublin Cash
A little proof that life is fast
The say that it ain't a race
But you sure can’t finish last
And we all grow up
And life goes on
With a little much letting go
When we oughta be holding o
And play it on a steel string
And mourn me in a low moan
Rosin up the morning
So the night can ring so true
Let the band play Dixie
And let the boys drink whiskey
Lay me in the ground
And hoist the Bonnie Blue
And I’ve got a woman
And she’s got a song now
And we’ll sing “Jackson” loud
And scrape for rent downtown
For a few more months now
Then I’ll lay my dollar down
On a few square feet around
To write my songs
And in a long, long time
When you’re looking at my life
You’ll know I did my living right
Singing old time, AM son
And play it on a steel string
And mourn me in a low moan
Rosin up the morning
So the night can ring so true
Let the band play Dixie
And let the boys drink whiskey
Lay me in the ground
And hoist the Bonnie Blue
