G   
Well I like a full bodied lager as much as the next hard working man
    G
The taste of suds while dealing stud I can surely understand
C
Trucker speed and yes indeed it`s nearly gettin` light
     G                                 F                 G
It`s time to switch to whiskey we been drinkin` beer all night
        G
You can fish for bass and cut your grass and drink that purple gas
G
Sho` nuff, but the powerful stuff that`ll knock you on your ass
        G
Is like diesel fuel, and nobody`s fool is gonna wanna get left behind
     G                                 F                 G
It`s time to switch to whiskey we 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` eights and hittin` my straights in the cardrooms of the world
Chasin` skirt and gettin` hurt but now I got a card playin` girl
But man she gets excited when the deal don`t come out right
It`s time to switch to whiskey we been drinking beer all night

Chorus

Lead

Well I`ve heard it said that you can get some heat in Irish pubs
Servin` Jamesons to an Orangeman and Bushmills to his cuz
Well here`s what you do with Tullamore Dew, you can meet `em both halfway
It`s time to switch to whiskey they`ve been drinkin` beer all day

Chorus
