The Lyrics
Hockin' 'em down, they're history,
I like that barley water hops.
Gettin' so drunk that you can't see,
Drink another barley pop.
Hockin' 'em down, they're history,
Turn the litmus paper green,
Later I'll drink some old red eye,
Then I'll so some yodeling.
This boozin' gives you semi-mental,
Feeling of no fear.
Let's go drinking flirt with folly,
Lying hurt and melancholy.
Hockin' 'em down, they're history,
Now they carry me away.
Why do I drink so scarily,
It's my drinkin' passion way.
I like that barley water hops.
Gettin' so drunk that you can't see,
Drink another barley pop.
Hockin' 'em down, they're history,
Turn the litmus paper green,
Later I'll drink some old red eye,
Then I'll so some yodeling.
This boozin' gives you semi-mental,
Feeling of no fear.
Let's go drinking flirt with folly,
Lying hurt and melancholy.
Hockin' 'em down, they're history,
Now they carry me away.
Why do I drink so scarily,
It's my drinkin' passion way.

Good work! 5's
Beer, be--oops, I mean, Hear, hear! 5's
And I'll "so" some yodeling?
Is that a typo or did you mean it like that?

Typo - I was working on these Christmas parodies late last night. I think I was a bit over-tired and made a few other typos as well on my others. It should say 'do' vice 'so'. I even fat-fingered my name on my 'thmus' parody and thus it missed being part of my overall stats. No more late night for this writer. Thanks for pointing that out.
Nice job! (Actually, I clicked on the "random" link, which brought me over here. So I decided to read this parody and vote on it.)
Thank you Max. This was one of my favorite writes.
Whoo-wee ! This one's superb, Guy.
