trevor lewington - deadman's company lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i was walking on the oceanside
a strange thing i did see
a bottle with a note inside
had washed up on the beach

was a letter from a stranger
with money free to spend
he asked a simple favor
so i did just what he said

[chorus]
he said:

have a drink on me
and i’ll be on my way
i’ll travel cross the ocean
till this whiskey bottle breaks

won’t you have a drink on me
in the morning set me free
i bet you’ve never had a drink
in a dead man’s company

[verse 2]
it said he lived a reckless life
astray in younger years
whiskey, wine, and cigarettes
and chased it down with beer
but he dreamt of one day travelling
a chance he never had
so they finished off the bottle
and they filled it with his ash

[chorus]
he said:

have a drink on me
and i’ll be on my way
i’ll travel cross the ocean
till this whiskey bottle breaks

won’t you have a drink on me
in the morning set me free
i bet you’ve never had a drink
in a dead man’s company

[verse 3]
the note it bore no address
so his home i did not know
maybe far afield
or a stranger down the road

but the whole thing made me wonder
where i’m going when i die
if a whiskey bottle’s heaven
i can leave here with a smile
[chorus]
he said:

have a drink on me
and i’ll be on my way
i’ll travel cross the ocean
till this whiskey bottle breaks

won’t you have a drink on me
in the morning set me free
i bet you’ve never had a drink
in a dead man’s company

[chorus]
he said:

have a drink on me
and i’ll be on my way
i’ll travel cross the ocean
till this whiskey bottle breaks

won’t you have a drink on me
in the morning set me free
i bet you’ve never had a drink
in a dead man’s company
