The grappa song

Chorus:

Vecchia Romana, Tullamore Dew,
I sit at the counter, thinking of you
The very best grappa that money can buy
Talking and singing as time goes by

Give me a grappa! Give me a beer!
Sing me a song that I'm dying to hear
Tell me a story, tell me a joke
Go outside Sophie if you want to smoke

[Chorus]

Pass me the football, score me a goal
Go into dinner before it gets cold
Get me a big beer to have in the shower
And maybe another, down at the bar

[Chorus]

Walk down the mountain, walk up the hill
Walk to the cross where it's peaceful and still
Sit in the sunshine, look at the stars
Eat up your dinner, drink up the bar

[Chorus]

Pour me a Bushmills, pour me Laphroaig
Made in a fishpond, and smells like a dog
Write me a postcard, play me a game
Without any rules, or even an aim

[Chorus]

Good morning Steffi, good morning Paul!
Good morning Josef who sits in the hall
Pasta und knodel und Schwein und Rotwein
Und immer naturlich die schone Fraulein

[Chorus]

Give me a lecture, give me a class
Tell me about conservation of mass
Let me computer, and hard exercise
Weary my brain and weary my eyes

[Last chorus and repeat]
