“Skinny Little Boy fron Cleveland Ohio” - Alex Bevan
Stand aside from the bar if you haven’t come to drink
You throw your water in the sink and give me whiskey in my glass
The bourbon tastes mean but it sure beats listerine
Gets your breath twice as clean, and high twice as fast
Run out of Wild Turkey, Jack Daniels is fine
Keep your Gin and tonic, your old ripple wine
Tequila and a pinch or even vodka’s all right
I got a ringin’ in my ears and a burnin’ in my eyes
And I’m a Skinny little boy from Cleveland Ohio
Come to drink your women and chase your beer
