Lyrics Tankard – We Still Drink The Old Ways
Text:
Back in the old land of beer
In 1516 times
Univirtuous brewers ruined the business
Spoiling and polluting the beer with grubby things
Duke of Bavaria
Forced laws and guaranteed
Needs of the people for healthy protection
Oldest consumer rights today
Forced laws and guaranteed
Needs of the people for healthy protection
Oldest consumer rights today
We drink the old ways!
You’re asking what, you’re asking why
We’re into «pure stuff»!
Preservatives: we don’t comply!
Don’t comply!
We still drink the old ways!
Don’t comply!
We still drink the old ways!
Wise rules, pleasant tradition
Make beer fans satisfied
Services and handicraft
Pure beer means quality
It’s a commitment, and it’s essential
Purity of barley, water, hops and yeast
Nine hundred breweries are there in this country
They care for standards, masters of enzymes
Just girls and wimps drink import-beer
Your choice to pick a good mass
Stay clean and drink with class
