Seven barrels of wine ain't no big thing
That should be easy for us, we're still not anywhere near drunk1
We're gonna party the night away, come on, friends, get ready
Oh how wonderful a bacherlor's life has been!
Seven barrels of wine ain't no big thing
That won't knock us out, yeah, we can take that all on our own
Today we're celebrating even though it's a sad thing
That soon I'll no longer be a free man
You know, I know a thousand women (know a thousand women)
But between you and me (but between you and me)
This time I've fallen for real
That's dangerous (dangerous), seriously (seriously)
Now I'm done for because it's not a game anymore
Seven barrels of wine ain't no big thing
That should be easy for us, we're still not anywhere near drunk
We're gonna party the night away, come on, friends, get ready
Oh how wonderful a bacherlor's life has been!
Seven barrels of wine ain't no big thing
Please don't leave me alone in my darkest hour
For it's time, we have to go
Lest we leave the bride waiting outside the church
There is something wrong (something wrong)
We're standing here all alone (we're standing here all alone)
Not a trace of the wedding in sight
Where are the guests (the guests), the priest (the priest)
And where is my bride - what am I gonna do?
"Good day, my son! You, here in church?
And in this condition?
What do you mean, 'wedding'? Yours was scheduled for yesterday!"
Seven barrels of wine can sometimes mean salvation
As life goes, some problems solve themselves
So what, now we're really gonna pig out
We're celebrating for a new reason!
We have nothing to lose anymore today
No bad thing can happen to us now
We have nothing to lose anymore today
No bad thing can happen to us now
