From the recording Freedom

Lyrics

With a rattle and a tinkle
I don’t mind if you call me a crazy gringo
Sounds better than advertising jingle
Sweeter than a hip top forty single

Hold on tight
To the days of old
I’ve got a yearning for the past
Until my body grows cold

If you’re looking for a taste
A taste with class
Everyone knows
It tastes better in glass
I said

Put it on ice
I say
Crisp and cold
I say
It tastes better in glass
I say
Everyone knows

Don’t think twice
I say
Time to Rock and Roll
I say
It tastes better in glass
I say
Like The Days of Old

Profits are up
When they put it in plastic
But your tastebuds will tell you
It ain’t that fantastic

Up in the boardroom
The businessman knows
What it takes
To get the deal closed

If you’re looking for a taste
A taste with class
Everyone knows
It tastes better in glass
I said

Put it on ice
I say
Crisp and cold
I say
It tastes better in glass
I say
Everyone knows

Don’t think twice
I say
Time to Rock and Roll
I say
It tastes better in glass
I say
Like the Days of Old

Okay let’s go!

SOLO

Back in my day
Everything was better
The sun was hotter
And the water was wetter

Hear what I say
Don’t think it a farce
The advice I give
I rate it first class

If you’re looking for a taste
A taste with class
Everyone knows
It tastes better in glass
I said

Put it on ice
I say
Crisp and cold
I say
It tastes better in glass
I say
Everyone knows

Don’t think twice
I say
Time to Rock and Roll
I say
It tastes better in glass
I say
Like the Days of Old

Okay let’s go!
