The Drinking Song Lyrics

Drink! Drink! Drink! To eyes that are bright as stars when they're shining on me! Drink! Drink! Drink! To lips that are red and sweet as the fruit on the tree! Here's a hope that those bright eyes will shine Lovingly, longingly soon into mine! May those lips that are red and sweet, Tonight with joy my own lips meet! Drink! Drink! Let the toast start! May young hearts never part! Drink! Drink! Drink! Let every true lover salute his sweetheart! Drink! Drink! Drink! To arms that are white and warm as a rose in the sun! Drink! Drink! Drink! To hearts that will love one, only when I am the one! Here's a hope that those soft arms will twine Tenderly, trustingly soon around mine! All I ask is the right to see the smiling eyes beguiling me Drink! Drink! Let the toast start! May young hearts never part! Drink! Drink! Drink! Let every true lover salute his sweetheart! Let's drink! Drink! Drink! Drink! To eyes that are bright as stars when they're shining on me! Drink! Drink! Drink! To lips that are red and sweet as the fruit on the tree! Here's a hope that those soft arms will twine Tenderly, trustingly soon around mine! All I ask is a right to see the smiling eyes beguiling me Drink! Drink! Let the toast start! May young hearts never part! Drink! Drink! Drink! Let every true lover salute his sweetheart! Let's drink

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
