Lyrics Me & My Gin - Dinah Washington

Me & My Gin

Stay away from me
Cause I’m in my sin
I said, stay away from me
Cause I’m in my sin
But if this joint is raided
Oh, Somebody bring me my gin
Well now don’t mess with me nobody
Cause you will never win
I said don’t mess with me nobody
Ooooh no
Cause you will never win
I’ll fight the army and the navy airforce and anybody
If somebody brings me my gin
Well any bootlegger
Go on and Show him, a pal of mine
Any bootlegger
All you gotta do Show him, a pal of mine
Cause a good bottle of gin
Will get it anytime
Especially when I get high
And Ain’t got nothing to do
I said when I get high ah ah
There ain’t nothing I won’t do
So just keep me full of good liquor
And I’ll be nice to you
(Variational Verse)
Oh I don’t want no cloth
And I don’t even need no bed
To lay my hair
I don’t want no clothes no no no no no no no
And I don’t even need no bed
No bed
To lay my head
I don’t want no clothes
And my name isn’t flying
All you got to do is giving a litle gin instead
Well, I got high last night
And I took my man to his wife front door
I got juiced last night
And took my man to his wife fronts door
Oh but she was a forty five packing mama
And I ain’t gonna try that no more
