Drinkin' In My Sunday Dress |
I can barely feel the sheets with all these crumbs down in my bed |
How can I get to sleep with all this buzzin' in my head |
And who’d have ever thought I’d not complain about a mess |
Serves me right I guess, this is what I get |
For eatin' crackers with my gin |
And drinkin' in my Sunday dress |
The telephone is by the bottle which is always by my bed |
From time to time I give it a rattle to make sure that it’s not dead |
I will wait here for your call till I run out of cigarettes |
I love to play the part of the damsel in distress |
Flickin' ashes in my coffee |
Drinkin' in my Sunday dress |
Well I’ve been on the road to this and I’ve been on the way to this |
But who’da think it’d come to this |
Don’t let on you’ve seen me like this |
My old transistor’s sounding just as twangy as a Fender |
My radiator growls like Elvis after Sunday dinner |
I’ve drained my last tequila and I’ve thrown away the blender |
I’ve poured out all the wine, from now on nothing but the best |
Cognac and Patsy Cline |
While drinkin' in my Sunday dress |
Well I’ve been on the road to this and I’ve been on the way to this |
I surely ain’t a hypocrite |
I’ve had my fun and now I must confess |
Our reverend is a kingly soul, repents ‘em on a dime |
His bible is not inked in gold, he is not the cheatin' kind |
One Sunday after meetin' I was in the greetin' line |
He said I’ve seen you from the altar |
Gulpin' down communion wine |
Just remember who’s beside you when it’s no business of mine |
