Whiskey Johnny [French translation]

Whiskey is the life of man,

Whiskey, Johnny!

O, whiskey is the life of man,

Whiskey for my Johnny O!

O, I drink whiskey when I can

Whiskey, Johnny!

Whiskey from an old tin can,

Whiskey for my Johnny O!

Whiskey gave me a broken nose!

Whiskey, Johnny!

Whiskey made me pawn my clothes,

Whiskey for my Johnny O!

Whiskey drove me around Cape Horn,

Whiskey, Johnny!

It was many a month when I was gone,

Whiskey for my Johnny O!

I thought I heard the old man say:

Whiskey, Johnny!

I'll treat my crew in a decent way,

Whiskey for my Johnny O!

A glass of grog for every man!

Whiskey, Johnny!

And a bottle for the Chantey Man.

Whiskey for my Johnny O!
