Lyrics
Here's to the winners, here's to those boys
Here's to the working girls and here's to those joys
Here's to this barstool, here's to that door
And if I can't make it home tonight
I might as well just have one more
(chorus)
Oh mama, don't wait for me
Oh mama, I'll be sleeping on the floor at number 54 or maybe number 53
Here's to another, here's to old friends
Here's looking at you, hope it never ends
Here's to you darling, the one that I adore
Now I may not look such a pretty sight, so I might as well just have one more
(chorus)
oh mama, don't wait up for me
oh mama, I'll be sleeping on the floor at number 54 or maybe number 53
( soprano sax solo )
I won't go falling over, I won't say goodbye
I won't go feeling lonesome, I won't go on and cry
I won't go saying that I love everybody
I won't go feeling sore
And if I don't get punched in a fight then I might as well just have one more
(chorus to end )
