As we sailed on the water blue, Whisky! Johnny!
F G G7 C
A good long pull and a strong one too, Whisky for my Johnny!
 
Whisky killed my brother Tom, Whisky! Johnny! 
I drink whisky all day long, Whisky for my Johnny! 
 
Whisky made me pawn my clothes, Whisky! Johnny! 
Whisky gave me this red nose, Whisky for my Johnny! 
 
Whisky is the life of man, Whisky! Johnny! 
I'll drink my whisky while I can, Whisky for my Johnny! 
 
Oh, whisky straight and whisky strong, Whisky! Johnny! 
Give me whisky and I'll sing you a song, Whisky for my Johnny! 
 
Whisky killed my poor old dad, Whisky! Johnny! 
Whisky druv my mother mad, Whisky for my Johnny! 
 
I drink whisky, my wife drinks gin, Whisky! Johnny! 
And the way she drinks it is a sin, Whisky for my Johnny! 
 
I and my wife cannot agree, Whisky! Johnny! 
For she drinks whisky in her tea, Whisky for my Johnny! 
 
I had a girl, her name was Lize, Whisky! Johnny! 
She puts whisky in her pies, Whisky for my Johnny! 
 
Whisky stole my brains away, Whisky! Johnny! 
The bos'n pipes and I'll belay, Whisky for my Johnny!
