Prohibition Toast

You charge a buck to see the blind tiger;
I'll pay a quarter to see the blind pig.

Here's to the laws shimmied up and over—
Here's to the hosts who match swig for swig—
Gin at the door is served complimentary;
two more, we'll be complimenting the gin.

Give me an address where no cops can find us.
Call me a rover, and pour us again.
