Greco-Roman Circle

Adapted from Anacreon # 47

I am old, but I drink more
than young men can, and when I dance
I take the center of the floor,
using my jereboam for crutch
since my cane's too short to serve.
If anybody wants a fight,
bring him over, I'll whip him, sure.
Barkeep, bring me bourbon and seven,
not too heavy on the seven.
