Here we sit in a smoky saloon
And the outside world is all doom and gloom
The barman keeps pouring us ales
He asks no questions and keeps out of the way
We've come a far way from home
To welcome the nightfall
Now's the time to sing, time to rejoice
Now's the time for cigars and grog!
Cigars and grog, cigars and grog!
We're abroad, cigars and grog!
Cigars and grog, cigars and grog!
Smoke and alcohol!
Cigars and grog, cigars and grog!
Gimme more cigars and grog!
Cigars and grog, cigars and grog!
That is what I want!
Upon the deck, the seas we roam
And akin the devils we drink and roar
Sealegs and a grin, the wind we face
With a bottle in hand, and tobacco ablaze
We've come a far way from home
To welcome the rays of dawn
Now's the time to sing, time to rejoice
Now's the time for cigars and grog!
Cigars and grog, cigars and grog!
We're on a boat, cigars and grog!
Cigars and grog, cigars and grog!
Smoke and alcohol!
Cigars and grog, cigars and grog!
Gimme more cigars and grog!
Cigars and grog, cigars and grog!
That is what I want!
So when we're going on the road again
and we end up in that smoky place
I hope you'll join me and partake
In a cigar and grog, old friends
Cigars and grog, cigars and grog!
We're on the road, cigars and grog!
Cigars and grog, cigars and grog!
Smoke and alcohol!
Cigars and grog, cigars and grog!
My mind is gone, cigars and grog!
Cigars and grog, cigars and grog!
We're back again for more!

We are a kick-ass band of folk metal marauders from the grim coast of Western Finland. Even if the northern nature might be
harsh, we have endured and continue to sing of the joys of life; ale, mead and booze! Jump in to the fray with us and party like it's the last day before the reckoning!...more
