Verse:

Nights are lonely, days are long;
There's no laughter, there's no song.
Here am I thinking of you,
Making all the late spots
As we used to do;

Chorus 1:

When you're at the Ritz in Paris
And you're havin' quite a fling,
Have a drink on me!
At the Savoy Bar at midnight
When Big Ben begins to ring,
Have a drink on me!
When you're down in Monte Carlo
And you're basking in the sun;
Surrounded by your would-be friends,
I hope you're havin' fun.
When you're all alone, I wonder,
Do you ever think of me?
Well, have your fling, the chances are
You'll find me at the same old bar;
So drink!
Have a drink on me!

Chorus 2:

When you're at the Ritz in Paris
And you're havin' quite a fling,
Have a drink on me!
At the Savoy Bar at midnight
When Big Ben begins to ring,
Have a drink on me!
When the lights are low and someone
Sings the songs I sang to you,
I wonder if it ever makes
You feel a little blue.
Should you ever want to find me,
Well, there's just one place I'll be:
That little café on the pier,
You'll find me crying in my beer;
So drink!
Have a drink on me!

Half chorus:

When you've had your fling
There's just one thing
If you've a memory;
It doesn't matter where you are,
Just call for me, I won't be far;
So drink!
Have a drink on me!
