Sunkist Sammy and One-Eyed Jake: — "Just a Little Glass of Water."

Sunkist Sammy and One-Eyed Jake:

"Just a Little Glass of Water."

Bad young men are sure to offer me
Wine and whisky, ale and eau-de-vie;
But as each temptation conies my way,
I must shake my head and firmly say:

Chorus
lust a little glass of water
Will do-oo!
Of the booze I'm no supporter,
Thank you-oo!
For I'm very well aware
That's the way to—you know where,
And with ev'ry glass of liquor,
You'll get there quicker!
It will weaken all your muscles—
It's true-oo!
It will make your white cor-pus-cles
Go blue-oo!
It will clog each nerve and vein,
Till you get it on the brain;
Just a little glass of water,
Thank you!
