My jug is near empty, my cup is not full
But I'll share my last whiskey with you
And we'll tell the old stories, we've heard them before
But we'll make them feel like new
<chorus>
Raise a glass to the days just past
And drink a cheer to the friends we hold dear
The future's uncertain, the past is not clear
I will share my last whiskey with you
We can ramble and rave, for there's worlds to be saved
Let us talk to the wee sma' hours
We've got tall tales to tell, from heaven and hell
Have a whiskey and tell us yours
<chorus>
-
There is much to be said, for a bottle of red
And there's much to be said for beer
But when your amusin', excusin' or boozin'
It's whiskey you'll want for a cheer
<chorus>
<last chorus>
Raise a glass to the days just past
And drink a cheer to the friends we held dear
For the future's uncertain, and the past is not clear
I will share my last whiskey with you
I will share my last whiskey with you

The Hogmanay (New Year's Eve, La Saint-Sylvestre) version
My jug is near empty, my cup is not full
But I'll share my last whiskey with you
And we'll tell the old stories, we've heard them before
But we'll make them feel like new
<chorus:>
Raise a glass to the days just past
And drink a cheer to the bonnie new year
The future's uncertain, the past is not clear
I will share my last whiskey with you
We can ramble and rave, for there's worlds to be saved
Let us talk to the wee sma' hours
We've got tall tales to tell, from heaven and hell
Have a whiskey and tell us yours
<chorus>

Raise a glass for the days just past
And drink a cheer to the friends we held dear
For the future's uncertain, and the past is not clear
I will share my last whiskey with you
I will share my last whiskey with you.
