Let’s start again

I’m partial to a glass of gin
As long as there’s nothing else in
Or tumbler of rum
Sits well in my tum

Maybe I’ll be best on my own
I’ve had my moments, I’ll not moan
It hasn’t been bad
I haven’t been sad

Maybe I’ll be best on my own
I’ve had my moments, I’ll not moan
It hasn’t been bad
I haven’t been sad
And I have lots of laughs with chum Joan.

Joan and I sure are game old birds

Joan and I sure are game old birds
We’ll try anything, true to words
Wing walking today
Surfing in the bay

Against the skin it feels divine
Like a soft caress
It takes away stress

Against the skin it feels divine
Like a soft caress
It takes away stress
Especially when you drink wine.
