Hair of the dog. This saying means to get rid of a hangover by taking a drink in the morning of whatever was drunk the night before.

Terry and Kerry
Plus Madge
Went to sea
To cruise the pacific
see all they could see
Stopped off in Hawaii
Look great in grass skirts
Climbed a volcano
wore loose fitting shirts
Went searching for Danny
From Hawaii five o
Were told that he left
A long time ago

They trooped back on board
Full of whiskey and gin
Went to their cabin
Danced the beguine
They never noticed
That the ship had left shore
And it’s gently rocking
Soon had them all snore
Terry got up
In the mirror she saw
Kerry and Madge
Asleep on the floor
She kicked them
To wake them
They all staggered out
More night life was waiting
They had little doubt
They hit the casino
The discoed away
Arrived in Samoa
By break of the day
The people were friendly
Food strange but tasty
The hair of the dog
Made their minds hazy
Madge was first
To see an imaginary rat
She started to run
Tripped and fell flat
Kerry was next
Let out a scream
Fell head over heels
Into a stream
Terry jumped up
Climbed a coconut tree
The rat’s big red eyes
Were all she could see
The lesson they learnt
When they got back to the cruise
Was to look after each other
AND STAY OFF THE BOOZE
