FAWM 2021 #3: Let the Rowdy Out

This is a "rent party" song, drawn on the tradition of holding a party, with an admission or a tip jar, to raise the money for the rent.

Lyrics

Open up the jug and let the ... rowdy out!
Just give us the nod, we'll turn your day around.
When you're in need, just give us a shout.
We'll open up the jug and let the rowdy out.

Feelin' low? We'll raise your spirits
Got the blues? We'll bring the booze.
Landlord's knockin'? We send that bastard packin'

Let the rowdy out so it can pay its dues.
Let the rowdy out so it can play these blues.

Open up a bottle, let the party out.
Forget about the rent, we'll raise it, without a doubt
You won't need a cent, when you've got us about,
We'll open up a bottle, let the party out.

Open that bottle! (sound of a cork) Now ain't that better?
Pour another round! (sound of pouring) Now the glass is wetter!
Here's to losing every one of your troubles!

Let the rowdy out so it can pay its dues.
Let the rowdy out so it can play these blues.

(solo)

Feelin' low? We'll raise your spirits
Got the blues? We'll bring the booze.
Landlord's knockin'? We send that bastard packin'

Let the rowdy out so it can pay its dues.
Let the rowdy out so it can play these blues.

Open up the jug and let the ... rowdy out!
Just give us the nod, we'll turn your day around.
When you're in need, just give us a shout.
We'll open up the jug and let the rowdy out.

We'll be there to cheer you up without a doubt.
