G                   
Well I like a full bodied lager as much as the next hardworkin' man

The taste of suds while dealin Stud, I can surely understand
C                                         
Trucker's speed and yes indeed, it's nearly gettin' light,
      G                                    F
It's time to switch to whiskey, we've been drinkin' beer all night.


              G                   
You can fish for bass and cut your grass and drink that purple gas,

Sure enough, but the powerful stuff that'll knock you on yo' ass
     C                                                                          
Like diesel fuel, nobodies fooled, don't wanna get left behind
       G                                  F 
It's time to switch to whiskey we've been drinkin' beer all night

  
Chorus:
          G                              F                 G 
Well it`s time to switch to whiskey we been drinkin` beer all night
      G                                     D
We`re all half dead and them that`s left is spoilin` for a fight
      G                                              C 
Well, who`d `a thunk, we`re quit drinkin` drunk, now boys don`t spare the rye
     G                                  F                G 
It`s time to switch to whiskey, we been drinkin beer all night



I've been splittin 8's and hittin my straights, in the card rooms of the world
Chasin' skirt and gettin' hurt, but now I gotta card playin' girl,
Man she gets excited when the deal don't come out right,
It's time to switch to whiskey, we've been drinkin' beer all night.
 
Well I heard it said, that you can get some heat in irish pubs,
Servin jameison's to an Orangeman and a bushmills to his cuz,
Here's what you do, with tullamore dew, you can meet us both have way,
it's time to switch to whiskey we've beend rinkin beer all day

    C            G            F         G
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey, I cry.
