Lyrics
Well, whiskey and wimmen
Gonna be the death of me
Well, whiskey and wimmen
Gonna be the death of me
Well now, I'm tellin' everybody
That they will not let me be
Well, my baby left me
She done left for somebody else
Well now, my baby, she left me
She done left for somebody else
Well now, I get sick and tired, Lord
Sleepin' all by myself
(Yeah, blow it now, Alan)
(Yeah)
(Go on, boy)
(Alright, yeah)
Well, it was late one evenin'
I was packin' my leavin' trunk
Well, it was late one evenin'
I was packin' my leavin' trunk
Well, I didn't have no whiskey
But them blues done made me sloppy drunk
Well, I cried last night, now
And I cried the night before
Well now, I cried last night
And I cried the night before
Well, I told my woman
I didn't love her no mo'
