PEOPLE BEEN DRANKIN  (Lyrics) 
by HappyRon in D
        
 CHORUS
People been drankin’ back / since the dawn of time    
People been drankin’ since / water turned to wine   
People been drankin’ - is / anyone in doubt?   
People been drankin’ so / don't leave me out!    /    /    /

Last night, I peered down / into my beer and my /

lend me your cash, and /  lend me your brain, and I'll    
tell you what you wanted to / hear!" And my beer says

 Drink me just like the bold highwaymen did, with their
 swords and their fists full of gold!" And my gin says

CHORUS:

Last night, I cried down into my rye, and my

CHORUS:

VERSE 4:

Last night, I swum down into my rum, and my

CHORUS:

VERSE 5: (Rubato)

Last night, I zip-lined into my wine, and my
wine says, (spoken) "Don't keep me hid!
 Drink me just like the old Romans once did, when you

CHORUS:
