Bill Wilson (song)

Once there was a drinking man
Bill Wilson was his name
yet he deserves a front row seat
in histories hall of fame
He spoke more about living
than we will ever feel
He wrote the language of the heart
so we can find what's real
CHORUS
Lets drink to old Bill Wilson
Yes lift your coffee high
As long as there's an A A
Don't let his memory die
That he was facing victory
never once occurred to him
Very few would be sober
If it weren’t for Bill Wilson
He spoke at many meetings
said to live we have to care
There's drunks who love the bottle
lets treat them fair and square
listen to their sad stories
don't laugh away their pride
Let them know we've been there
and that we're on their side
CHORUS
There's recovery unity and service
that tell of Wilson's fame
But compared to what went before
it's civilized and tame
The big book is good council
the traditions show the way
Thank God for the way of life
That's known as A A
CHORUS
