Lyrics:

In eighteen eighty down a dusty road,
along came a miner with a big fat load,
Hey, hey, ev'rybody drink on me.
He was caked in dirt from his head to his foot,
his hair so black, that it look like soot.
Hey, hey, ev'rybody drink on me.

2. Well, he reined in his mule
and hitched him to the rail,
and he said 'oh fella it's the end of the trail®
Hey. hey. everybody drink on me.
Well, he ambled down to the old saloon,
he said 'I know a filly and it ain't quite noon'.
Hey, hey, ev'rybody drink on me.

Well, I just got a letter from down in Tennessee,
it said my uncle died and left an oil well to me.
Hey, hey, ev'rybody drink on me
I've been diggin' all my life and I nearly got to hell,
but my uncle dug potatoes and he struck an oil well
Hey, hey, ev'rybody drink on me.

Refrain:
Have a drink, have a drink, have a drink on me,
ev'rybody have a drink on me.
Hey, hey, ev'rybody drink on me.
Have a drink, have a drink, have a drink on me
ev'rybody have a drink on me
Hey, hey ev'rybody drink on me.
