Since I went on the wagon
I'm certain drink is a major crime.
For when you lay off the liquor
You feel so much slicker.
Well, that is, most of the time...
But there are moments, sooner or later,
When it's tough, I've got to say, not to say ... Waiter :

Make it another old-fashioned, please
Make it another, double old-fashioned, please
Make it for one who's due to join the disillusion crew
Make it for one of love's new refugees.

Once high in my castle, I reigned supreme.
And oh, what a castle, built on a heavenly dream
Then quick as a lightning flash
That castle began to crash.
So, make it another old-fashioned, please

Leave out the cherry,
Leave out the orange,
Leave out the bitters,
Just make it a straight rye!
