Ooo don't forget this song
Come all of you companions
And listen awhile to me
A story I will tell you
Of keepin' bad company
I landed in the city
And there is where I fell
The bright lights
And night life lured me
To the very pits of Hell
There I started drinking
I drank both night and day
And all times within' my bosom
A feeble voice would say
Your mother she keeps praying
Please God protect my boy
And cherish him through his manhood
Throughout his manhood joy
Ooo don't forget this song
Now I'm on the scalpel
My moments they're not long
You may forget the singer
But don't forget the song
