Whisky from Initial Settings by b.e_cooling

Woke up each morning, caught the 6:45
‘Mind the gap’ if you want to survive
Strut the Mile – fifty beggars in tow
Two double whiskies and I’m ready to go.

I count the numbers as they fall through the floor
It’s boom or bust, baby – you know the score.
Don’t look for sympathy – I gave it away,
But I kept my whisky ‘cause I’m happy that way

Woah, woah ……

I crossed the ocean – took the luxury line
To a hot little haven where they save me a dime
The folks back home have to live in the cold
Too many whiskies and it’s taken its toll

Woah, woah ……

I’ve got my pension – I get six hundred grand
Won’t give it back - it helps pay for the tan
Stop the press – I know what you’re gonna say
I’m a single malt bastard but I’m happy that way

Woah, woah ……

Get up each morning, catch the 6:45
