B                  G    D/F#  E
I've been drinking all night long
So long, baby, I'm gone

B                  E        B
Well, Bloody Mary give me shiver from a shot
Set up the shooters, it's time for a drop
Gimme Old Jamaica, running we come
Down at the hatch, Jack, the women and the fun

B    A
We drink a lot
D     E
That demon drop
B    A
This one's on me
     E
and here's to you

Chorus:
                B G D/F# E
Whiskey on the rocks
                  G D/F# E
A double or a shot
Whiskey on the rocks
Elixir from the top

You went drinking Mai Tais, Singapore sling
Beam me up, Jim, it's time to come in
I'll have one more a-fore ya close up the door
It's on the house, Mac, it's whiskey galore

We drink a lot of that demon drop
This one's on me, here's mud in your eye

Chorus:
Whiskey on the rocks
A double or a shot
Whiskey on the rocks
Elixir from the top

He's gone seven sheets to the wind
(Ha-ha-ha)
Fill him up, Joe!

Lock the door

Chorus:
Whiskey on the rocks
A double or a shot
Whiskey on the rocks
Elixir from the top

Whiskey on the rocks
A double or a shot
Whiskey on the rocks
Elixir from the top

I'm drinkin'
Whiskey on the rocks
I'll have my whiskey on the rocks
Gimme whiskey on the rocks
Keep it comin' on the rocks
Yeah
Pour me a double, here come trouble
(Whiskey on the rocks)
Whiskey on the rocks
