Irish Pub Song

What do you do with a drunken sailor?
What do you do with a drunken sailor?
What do you do with a drunken sailor?
Early in the mornin'

He grabbed his keys and then starts drivin'
took all the pills his doc prescribed him
had a few beers and now he's strivin'
Early in the mornin'

He met a girl at the bar and then
bought her a drink and she was grinnin'
He went home her beside him
Early in the mornin'

He grabbed his keys and then starts drivin'
took all the pills his doc prescribed him
had a few beers and now he's strivin'
Early in the mornin'

She left quickly and never called him
He went to the bar and couldn't find her
Started trouble left with a shiner
Early in the mornin'

He grabbed his keys and then starts drivin'
took all the pills his doc prescribed him
had a few beers and now he's strivin'
Early in the mornin'

In a drunken rage he was blinded
He didn't see the corner comin'
Wrapped around a pole and now hes done for
Early in the mornin'

Help showed up but they were too late
the sailor was on the way to his grave
He was buried next to a lake
Early in the mornin'

That's what we do with a drunken sailor
Say good bye and see you later
Put you in a six foot crater
Early in the mornin'

Wow...I really like this. Don't take offense, but did you write this? If you did, GREAT use of end rhyme. Seriously. Prescribed him and strivin' is an amazing rhyme...
