lyrics

walking beer

I don’t like to drink alone
but with no companion of my own
there’s no bar comforts me
so I take to the streets

and get myself a walking beer, walk myself on out of here
move along be of good cheer, get myself a walking beer

in the city the delis had
ice cold beer in little brown bags
night and day they were open too
whats a poor wandering fool to do

but get himself a walking beer, walk himself on out of there
move along be of good cheer, get himself a walking beer

nice folks don’t drink in the street
heavens no, they’re more discreet
observant of decorum laws
they carry on behind closed doors

while I get myself a walking beer, walk myself on out of here
move along be of good cheer, get myself a walking beer
