Reasons For Drinking

John Pierpont

 Next Poem          

One drinks because he's very hot,
As we are often told;
Another can't refuse a pot,
Because he's very cold.


A third will drink because he's wet,
Its benefits to try;
A fourth must sure a tankard get,
Because he's very dry.


Another must a bargain make,
And have a glass to strike it;
While one and all the liquor take,
Because, in fact, they like it.
