[Intro]
D# F E
[Verse]
A
Oh, I'm on the Drinking Man's Diet
D A
It came from a book I was loaned
E Am
It's really terrific and quite scientific
B G
And I'm half stoned
A
For breakfast some cornflakes and vodka
D C#
But cornflakes have carbohydrate;
D F
So I don't eat those fattening cornflakes
A
I eat the vodka straight
[Chorus]
A
Drink, drink, everyone drink;
D Am
It's not as bad as we used to think
D F
With every Manhattan your stomach will flatten
A Bm
So drink, drink, drink
[Verse]
A
The Air Force invented this diet
D A
A fact which they hotly deny
E Am
Of course they deny it, 'cause this is the diet
B G
That got the Air Force high
A
For lunch you can have three martinis
D C#
What better lunch is there than that?
D F
But caution: do not eat the olives
A
'Cause olives make you fat
[Chorus]
A
Drink, drink, everyone drink;
D Am
It's not as bad as we used to think
D F
If pounds you would burn off, then turn on your Smirnoff
A Bm
And drink, drink, drink
