1, A bottle o’ rum is just enough tae get me oot o’ bed,
A bottle o’ rum is just enough tae clear ma achin’ head,
It’s just enough tae gie ma een that lovely shade o’ red,
A bottle o’ rum is just enough tae get me oot o’ bed,
It’s just enough tae gie ma een that lovely shade o’ red,
A bottle o’ rum is just enough tae get me oot o’ bed,
2. A litre o’ gin is just enough tae tak the shakes awa’
A litre o’ gin is just enough tae mak the colours braw,
A’ canny pick the gless up, so a sook it through a stra’,
A litre o’ gin is just enough tae tak the shakes awa’
A’ canny pick the gless up, so a sook it through a stra’,
A litre o’ gin is just enough tae tak the shakes awa’
3. A Balthazar o’ brandy, well that’s juist enough for three,
A Balthazar o’ brandy, that’ll set me up for tea;
Jocky’s got an interview so it’s up tae you an’ me,
A Balthazar o’ brandy, well that’s juist enough for three, twae,
Jocky’s got an interview so it’s up tae you an’ me,
A Balthazar o’ brandy, well that’s juist enough for three, twae.
4. A barrel o’ grouse is juist enough tae fit inside ma boot,
A barrel o’ grouse is juist enough tae see the week-end oot,
Ten years past its sell-by date, but Ah don’t gie a hoot,
A barrel o’ grouse is juist enough tae fit inside ma boot,
Ten years past its sell-by date, but Ah don’t gie a hoot,
A barrel o’ grouse is juist enough tae fit inside ma boot,
5. A packet o’ nuts is juist enough tae quench ma appetite,
A packet o’ nuts is juist enough, ma diet’s fairly tight,
Fell off the loo and aw the bog was pebble dashed in s***e,
A packet o’ nuts is juist enough tae quench ma appetite,
Fell off the loo and aw the bog was pebble dashed in s***e,
A packet o’ nuts is juist enough tae quench ma appetite.
