Drinkin' Blues

(álbum: Nothin' But The Blues - 1977)

So many people talking 'bout how much they can drink
Well, I know there's people talking 'bout how much they can drink
Well, all I have for breakfast is two spokes in one airplane (yeah, nice too)

I'm waiting at the stairs, and I'm sure to stone the light
Waiting for the stair, I'm sure to stone the light
I'm too smashed to go on living, but I wait in vain to die

(Yeah I'm too frail to brag about it)

(Come on, James!)
(You found the note!)
(Go ahead now!)
(Yes, yes...)

I'm too lazy to go out travelling, too mean to stay at home
And when I'm out and drinking, best leave me alone
Lazy to travel, I'm too mean to stay at home
Well when I'm down drinking, papa you'd best leave me alone

(Play a little rock, y'all!)

(Come on now, man!)

(Yes, yes...)

Sorry, sorry, baby, 'cause I know that it's a sin
So, so sorry, I believe that it's a sin
I been out last night baby, tonight I'm gonna have a beer...

Yeah, I'm gonna have one more...
