What's the use of getting sober
|
When you're gonna get drunk again
|
Oh Sam done something fine
|
When he bought that good whiskey, beer and wine
|
I love my whiskey and I love my gin
|
Every time you see me I'm in my sin
|
So what's the use of getting sober
|
When you're gonna get drunk again
|
|
DV:
|
I went out last night about half past one
|
Thought I'd whoop it up a little and have some fun
|
I got me a half pint about half past two
|
Mmm, mmm, the way I was feeling you know what I wanna do
|
Got me a pint about half past four
|
Felt so good, went out and got me some more
|
Got me a quart about half past five
|
Boy, that was so nice didn't know if I was dead or alive
|
|
So what's the use of getting sober If you're gonna get drunk again
|
Oh Sam done something fine
|
When he bought that good whiskey, beer and wine
|
I love my whiskey and I love my gin
|
Every time you see me I'm in my sin
|
So what's the use of getting sober
|
When you're gonna get drunk again
|
|
Well I've been thinking
|
But I keep drinking
|
I guess I'm 'bout lose my mind
