The Drinkers Hymn Bless this pub oh god we pray
Keep it open night and day
Bless the lager and the stout
By the bottle pour it out
Bless the people here within
Give them tonic with their gin
Bless the bar hands either sex
Keep them free from bouncing checks
Bless the whiskey cold or hot
Whether I’ve paid for it or not
Slow me up on rum and coke
When you find I’m getting broke
Bless me when the goings hard
And reinstate me when I’m barred
Bless us all now come what may
Staggering home at the end of the day
