Isn't It Queer How Some Women Drink Beer? 
CHO: Isn't it queer how some women drink beer? They drink and they drink and get tight, And the new license plan, well, it ain't worth a damn, In Soho on Saturday night. 
They tell me in Soho on Saturday night, Most everyone that you meet they are tight, The men with their bottles and their wives with a can, And the young girls go browsing the streets like a man. One woman I met, she got soaking wet, She fell in the sewer and got soaking wet. 
They all toss their drinks. Carnegie does the same. As soon as you can drink 'em down, a round of drinks they came. Oliver, he got blind drunk. Carnegie couldn't see. Frick was bad, but Mellon was a damn site worse than me. 
[From the singing of Vivian Richman of Pittsburgh.] XX July01
