Whiskey Bent And Hell Bound

(album: That's How They Do It In Dixie: The Essential Collection - 2006)

I've got a good woman at home
Who thinks I do no wrong
But sometimes, Lord, she just ain't always around
And you know that's when I fall
Now I can't help myself at all
And I get whiskey bent and hell bound

Play me some songs about a ramblin man
Put a cold one in my hand
Cause you know I love to hear those guitar sounds
Don't you play, I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry
Cause I'll get all balled up inside
And I'll get whiskey bent and hell bound

Sure enough about closin time
About stoned out of my mind
And I end up with some honkytonk special I found
Just as sure as the mornin sun comes
Thinkin of my sweet girl at home
And I need to get whiskey bent and hell bound

Play me the songs about ramblin man
Put old Jim Beam in my hand
Cause you know I still love to get drunk
And hear country sounds
But don't you play, Your Cheatin Heart
Cause that'll tear me all apart
I'll get whiskey bent and hell bound

Yeah, old Hank's songs
Always make me feel low down
