What's the Use of Getting Sober (When You're Gonna Get Drunk Again?) |
| Boy, you listen to your old Pappy |
| Yeah, Pappy |
| And stop drinking so much |
| I’m, I’m ain’t been doing so much drinking, Pappy |
| Shut up, boy! |
| You drink all day and you drink all night |
| And son you know that, that ain’t right |
| Oh Pappy, you just give me a chance, I, I can, I |
| Shut up, boy! |
| Boy, you’re lookin' thin as a twig |
| I know that |
| Look liked your dear old Pappy you’re about to blow your wig |
| Oh I’m gonna blow my wig, Pappy |
| 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 |
| 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 |
