I LIKE BEER 
Tom T. Hall


In some of my songs I have casually mentioned 
The fact that I like to drink beer
But this little song is more to the point
so roll out the barrel and lend me your ear 

(chorus)
I like beer It makes me a jolly good fellow
I like beer It helps me unwind and sometime it makes me feel mellow 
(makes him feel mellow)

Whiskeys too rough Champaign cost too much
Vodka puts my mouth in gear
This little refrain should help me explain
As a matter of fact I like beer
(He likes beer)

My wife often frowns when we're out on the town 
I'm wearing a suit and a tie 
She's sipping vermouth and she thinks I'm uncouth 
When I yell as the waiter goes by 

(Chorus) 

Last night I dreamed that I'd passed from the scene 
And I went to a place so sublime 
All water was clear and it tasted like beer 
Then they turned it all into wine (awww) 

(Chorus) 

(Yes he likes beer)
