Bottle of Booze Lyrics

There are many wonders in the USA
The cities and the people, and Disney World, hooray!
But coming back to Canada with joy the heart does ooze
'Cause when you get to the border, you buy a bottle of booze.
You buy a bottle of booze
You buy a bottle of booze
When you get to the border, you buy a bottle of booze.
You buy a bottle of booze
You buy a bottle of booze
When you get to the border, you buy a bottle of booze.

I was traveling with a gentleman who didn't like to drink
When we got to the border, I commenced to think
I said, "Do me a favour" and he did not refuse
When we got to the border, he bought me a bottle of booze.

You buy a bottle of booze
You buy a bottle of booze
When you get to the border, you buy a bottle of booze.
You buy a bottle of booze
You buy a bottle of booze
When you get to the border, you buy a bottle of booze.
You may be in a comedy act, touring through the 'States
You're playing hard in country bars, things aren't going great
A fight breaks out at the pool table, you run before you bruise
But you call the tour successful and buy a bottle of booze.

You buy a bottle of booze
You buy a bottle of booze
When you get to the border, you buy a bottle of booze.
You buy a bottle of booze
You buy a bottle of booze
When you get to the border, you buy a bottle of booze.
OK, the sad verse now, the sad verse:
A friend of mine came to me, his face awash in tears
For he could afford the spirit that gave him cheers (aww)
I said, "Aw! Stop yer cryin'! I'll wash away those blues...
When I was at the border, I bought ya a bottle of booze!"

You buy a bottle of booze (hey!)
You buy a bottle of booze (hey!)
When you get to the border, you buy a bottle of booze.
You buy a bottle of booze (hey!)
You buy a bottle of booze (hey!)
When you get to the border, you buy a bottle of booze.

You buy a bottle of booze (hey!)
You buy a bottle of booze (hey!)
When you get to the border, you buy a bottle of booze.
HEY!
