How much rum can I hold?
How much rum can I hold?
Just yesternight I was told
You better not drink when you’re old

But of course
But of course
Age gets us all

How many times will you hear?
The funeral sounds in your ear
I’m listening in my lowest gear
And fading in my lowest gear

But of course
But of course
Death gets us all

And of course
But of course
Death gets us all

Seven whole years have now passed
Since I said that we would not last
Though sometimes we ran out of gas
And walked because no one would stop

And I hope
Yes I hope
Love gets us all
And I hope
Yeah I hope
Love gets us all
