When the night is cold and the hours are long

I think about good times now long since gone

But no memory pleases me more to recall

Than the night that dear willy came out on a crawl

He was 18 for a few hours more

I fed him some whisky as he walked through my door

The sounds of a house-party rolled down the street

So we pounded our pilsner and leapt to our feet

Oh he had his filling

Tequila swilling

Oh he put out the flames

And it earned him the name

Fire marshal willy

Oh we led him away to the depths of the house

With jose cuervo and old famous grouse

He took 15 shots in the blink of an eye

Fell under the porch by the bbq side

And they told him just sit down instead

Do touch that extinguisher shiny and red

But william was drunk as I'd ere seen a man

And so the insanity surely began

Oh he had his filling

Tequila swilling

Oh he put out the flames

And it earned him the name

Fire marshal willy

10 Minutes later he flashed me a smile

There wasn't combustion within 20 miles

He'd hosed every chap in the whole fucking place

And threw his cold water right in justine's face

When the night is cold and the hours are long

I think about good times now long since gone

But no memory gives me more pleasure then

Than the night that dear willy became a new man

Oh he had his filling

Tequila swilling

Oh he put out the flames

And it earned him the name

Fire marshal willy

Oh he had his filling

Tequila swilling

Oh he put out the flames

And it earned him the name
