HERE'S TO THE FOUR HINGES OF FRIENDSHIP by ANONYMOUS

Last Line: "AND WHEN YOU DRINK, DRINK WITH ME"
Subject(s): FRIENDSHIP;

Here's to the four hinges of Friendship—
Swearing, Lying, Stealing and Drinking.
When you swear, swear by your country;
When you lie, lie for a pretty woman,
When you steal, steal away from bad company,
And when you drink, drink with me.
