[Verse 1:]
Like everybody else, I like a night on the town
I love a bellavino when the sun goes down
But unfortunately
One thing has led to another, yes it has
I've struggled more than once to put the key in the door
Fallen flat on my face on the disco floor
But if I die
I'm gonna die laughing, now listen
I've sung and I've danced on the streets of Pari
Discovered my trousers up an old oak tree
I've walked half naked through the hotel Continental
But you know what
Well, I'm glad I did what I did when I did it
Make no mistake about that
And I'm glad I said what I said when I said it
Oh yeah
[Chorus:]
It was the drink that made me do it
I know sometimes I blew it
It was the drink that made me do it
Every time, every time
[Verse 2:]
I've spent a lot fandango and I've lost my socks
Even spent the night in a telephone box
I'm a sucker when I hear
"One more for the road"
I've woken up with women that I hardly knew
Wine is the cause of silly tattoos
I've raised hell
Where hell didn't need no raising
But I'm glad I did what I did when I did it
Make no mistake about that
And I'm glad I said what I said when I said it
Oh yeah
[Chorus:]
It was the drink that made me do it
Sometimes I guess I blew it
It was the drink that made me do it
Every time, oh yeah
Aah yeah
[Bridge:]
So, the moral of the story, stick to tea and cakes
If you take to the drinking, you're gonna make mistakes
I wouldn't change a thing if I could do it again
No I wouldn't
[Chorus:]
It was the drink that made me do it
Sometimes I knew I blew it
It was the drink that made me do it
Every time, every time
[Outro:]
Oh yeah, blame the drink
Like everybody else, I like a night on the town
I love a bellavino when the sun goes down
But unfortunately
One thing has led to another, yes it has
I've struggled more than once to put the key in the door
Fallen flat on my face on the disco floor
But if I die
I'm gonna die laughing, now listen
I've sung and I've danced on the streets of Pari
Discovered my trousers up an old oak tree
I've walked half naked through the hotel Continental
But you know what
Well, I'm glad I did what I did when I did it
Make no mistake about that
And I'm glad I said what I said when I said it
Oh yeah
[Chorus:]
It was the drink that made me do it
I know sometimes I blew it
It was the drink that made me do it
Every time, every time
