Rum And Ginger

Take my cup and
Fill it to the
Top with rum and
Ginger baby

We were young, we had fun
So the survivors say
We went out, we got drunk
We felt sick the next day
Waking up in a
Strange portacabin or field
We were bullet proof
Using our youth as our shield

Life is made to be lived so
Don't stop, keep taking those risks and
Age is a relative thing, you're
Only as old as you let yourself feel
So let's be nineteen forever

Take my cup and
Fill it to the
Top with rum and
Ginger baby
Take my hand and
Dance me round the
Kitchen table
While we're able

And we still hit the town
Every now and again
But it now takes us days
To get over the pain
And it isn't an option
To sleep in all day
So we just do it Friday
Or Saturday

Life is short and it's sweet so
Don't stop, keep moving your feet and
Dance like there's nobody watching you
Sing 'til your voice is all battered and bruised
You've got nothing to lose

Take my cup and
Fill it to the
Top with rum and
Ginger baby
Take my hand and
Dance me round the
Kitchen table
While we're able

Spin me round
Take me down
To the place where the people go
Raise the roof
Raise your glass
To the days of the future past
No regrets
No surrender
Let's just go an a bender
Going out
Gloucester style
You can carry me out with a smile
