Well, I like a full bodied lager as much as the next hard workin' man,
 G
The taste of suds, while dealin' stud, I can surely understand,
    C
The trucker speed, and yes indeed, it's nearly gettin light,
           G
Well, it's time to switch to whiskey
           F                  G
We’ve been drinkin’ beer all night!

Smoke your grass, and fish for bass, and burn that purple gas

It's like diesel fuel, nobody's fool's gonna wanna get left behind
           G
Well, it's time to switch to whiskey
           F                 G

         G                                         C
Well, who'da thunk, we'd quit drinkin' drunk, now boys don’t spare the rye

[Verse 3]
 G
I've been splittin' eights and hittin' m'straights in card rooms of the world
 G
Chasing skirt and gettin' hurt, but now I got a card playin' girl
 C
Man she gets a solid when the deal don't come out right
               G                                  F                G

Well, who'da thunk, we'd get jackass drunk, now boys dont spare the rye
