“Hey, bartender!”

“Hey, bartender!” is an iconic phrase, popularized as the title of a 1954 song by Floyd Dixon and repopularized when that song made the album Briefcase Full of Blues (1978), by the Blues Brothers. “Hey, bartender” has been cited in print since at least 1879. Print citations of the phrase were few during the U.S. prohibition (1920-1933), and then many citations appeared from the mid-1930s. “Hey Bartender” was also the title of a 1946 song.
