Red Rum - Greatest Drink (In All the Land) lyrics

Artist: Red Rum

album: Book of Legends


Let me spin you all a tale
Of the night I can recall
With the drunkest man I've ever seen
His stories winding tall
From the teachings of the drunkard we all came to understand
Words of wisdom piercing hearts across the land
Well the Vikings think it's mead
All them sailors think it's grog
But I can tell you now me lads
That they're all completely wrong
From the fingers of a dead man
Yes I ripped it from his hand
For us pirates It's the single greatest drink in all the land
Well the Vikings think it's mead
All them sailors think it's grog
But I can tell you now me lads
That they're all completely wrong
From the fingers of a dead man
Yes I ripped it from his hand
For us pirates it's the single greatest drink in all the land
On a night I set to drinking
With my crew and mates in arm
Set to spend up all our plunder
On the lasses we could charm
When there wandered in a stranger
From the cold and stormy night
You could tell that he was wasted
What a sight!
Well he rambled of his travels far
To all who'd lend an ear
From the stories he was spinning us
To all he made it clear
That he knew the greatest secret
Told to us with glass in hand
Of the single greatest drink in all the land
Well the Vikings think it's mead
All them sailors think it's grog
But I can tell you now me lads
That they're all completely wrong
From the fingers of a dead man
Yes I ripped it from his hand
For us pirates it's the single greatest drink in all the land
Well the Vikings think it's mead
All them sailors think it's grog
But I can tell you now me lads
That they're all completely wrong
From the fingers of a dead man
Yes I ripped it from his hand
For us pirates it's the single greatest drink in all the land! HEY!
From the teachings of this drunkard yes we finally understand
For us pirates its the single greatest drink in all the land
How could this man be so wise?
Could he be spinning us lies?
When only a taste will suffice
What is this sorcery
Holding him down on both sides
Point blank we snuff out his life
Breaking his grip, we drink deeply to claiming our prize
Well the Vikings think it's mead
All them sailors think it's grog
But I can tell you now me lads
That they're all completely wrong
From the fingers of the drunkard
Yes I ripped it from his hand
For us pirates it's the greatest on the sea
What possibly could this brew even be?
Well the Vikings think it's mead
All them sailors think it's grog
But I can tell you now me lads
That they're all completely wrong
From the fingers of a dead man
Yes I ripped it from his hand
For us pirates it's the single greatest drink in all the land
Well the Vikings think it's mead
All them sailors think it's grog
But I can tell you now me lads
That they're all completely wrong
From the fingers of a dead man
Yes I ripped it from his hand
For us pirates it's the single greatest drink in all the land
Well the Vikings think it's mead
All them sailors think it's grog
But I can tell you now me lads
That they're all completely wrong
From the fingers of a dead man
Yes I ripped it from his hand
For us pirates it's the single greatest drink in all the land
From the fingers of a dead man
Yes I ripped it from his hand
For us pirates it's the single greatest drink in all the land hey!
