In some of my songs I've casually mentioned
The fact I like to drink beer
This little song is more to the point
Roll out the barrel, lend me your ear
I like beer
It makes me a jolly good fellow
I like beer
It helps me unwind
Sometimes it makes me feel mellow.
Whiskey's too rough, champagne costs too much,
Vodka makes my mind unclear;
This little refrain should help me explain
As a matter of fact I like beer
My wife often frowns when we're out on the town
I'm wearing a suit and a tie
She's sipping vermouth and she thinks I'm uncouth
When I yell as the waiter goes by
I like beer
It makes me a jolly good fellow
I like beer
It helps me unwind
Sometimes it makes me feel mellow.
Whiskey's too rough, champagne costs too much,
Vodka makes my mind unclear;
This little refrain should help me explain
As a matter of fact I like beer
Last night I dreamed that I passed from the scene
And went to a place so sublime
Oh, the water was clear and tasted like beer
Then they turned it all into wine
I like beer
It makes me a jolly good fellow
I like beer
It helps me unwind
Sometimes it makes me feel mellow.
Whiskey's too rough, champagne costs too much,
Vodka makes my mind unclear;
This little refrain should help me explain
As a matter of fact I love beer
