How High Am I? (03-04-44) |
How high, how high am I? |
I won’t be sober 'til the Fourth of July |
Move all the villains and let me by |
How high am I? |
Hey, Richard |
Come on down here, boy, and open this door |
What kinda whiskey is this? |
This whiskey won’t let ya do nothin' |
Mmm, I ain’t never felt that way before |
All the world is apple pie |
All the seas are ink |
All the trees are dry bread and cheese |
I’m thirsty, what am I gonna drink? |
Rum, whiskey, rye and gin |
Mmm, can’t you tell what a fool I’ve been? |
Bring out the doctor, Richard, see the state I’m in? |
I’m higher than the sky, how high am I? |
I don’t like liquor but I’m drunk everyday |
When they make liquor, it just comes my way |
Everything in the world happens to me |
I drink black coffee and it tastes like tea |
I feel like a feather but I’m yellin' like a hound |
I would be a king, I just haven’t got a crown |
One more drink and I believe I’ll drown |
How high am I? |
Mmm, mmm, mmm |
Everybody’s drinkin' scotch and soda |
Hey, boy, c’mere, c’mere, bring me a rum and coke |
You know I believe I’m gon' have to crawl home on my knees |
And Jack, that ain’t no joke |
Rum, whiskey, rye, beer and gin |
Can’t you tell what a fool I’ve been? |
C’mere, c’mere, somebody, can’t you see I’m sunk? |
How high am I? |
No, that’s a lie |
I’m drunk |
