“Have a Drink on Me” by AC/DC or am I the only person here who was of that age in the 80’s?

Yes, that one works. It is a bit different, though - the song stands out as a warm tribute to their former frontman... and that's on an album that was intended in part to be a "wake" for Bon Scott.

Based on the lyrics alone, Have A Drink On Me seems like a great drinking tune. For me, though, it comes off as a bit maudlin (despite the band's intentions that it be celebratory of the way Bon lived).

Great song, though. Just a bit deeper in meaning than the average drinking tune.
