Have a Little Drop of Gin, Dear !
(a chorus sung in the night-club in the early hours before collapsing in a heap)
have a little drop of gin dear, spirits help your spirits so
no, it really isn't sin, dear, it just gives you that same glow
just a little drop of gin, dear, always makes me feel more real
it will put your perm back in, dear, a new person you will feel
have a little drop of gin, dear, be the person you would be
balance up your yang and yin, dear, come and see the sights with me
have a little drop of gin, dear, there you're starting to unwind
just forget your kith and kin, dear, leave those problems far behind . . . .
(lyrics by Andy Brettell, sung by Bunny Thomas)
