I Like Beer (1975)
Aw in some of my songs I have casually mentioned
The fact that I like to drink beer
But this little song is more to the point
So roll out the barrel and lend me your ear

I like beer it makes me a jolly good fellow
I like beer it helps me unwind And sometime it makes me feel mellow
(makes him feel mellow) Aw that is so pretty ain't that beautiful
Whiskeys too rough Champaign cost too much Vodka puts my mouth in gear
This little refrain should help me explain as a matter of fact I like beer


My wife often frowns when we're out on the town
And I'm wearing a suit and a tie
She's sipping vermouth and she thinks I'm uncouth
When I yell when the waiter walks by


I like beer it makes me a jolly good fellow
I like beer it helps me unwind and sometime it makes me feel mellow
(makes him feel mellow) Sound like the Morman Tabernacle football team
Whiskeys too rough Champaign cost too much Vodka puts my mouth in gear
This little refrain should help me explain as a matter of fact I like beer

Last night I dreamed that I passed from the scene
And I went to a place so sublime
The water was clear and it tasted like beer
Then they turned it all into wine

I like beer it makes me a jolly good fellow
I like beer it helps me unwind and sometime it makes me feel mellow
(makes him feel mellow) you won a cigar you know that?
Whiskeys too rough Champaign cost too much Vodka puts my mouth in gear
This little refrain should help me explain as a matter of fact I like beer
(Yes we like beer)
