Beer Drinking Woman (Take 2)

Now I walked into a beer tavern
To give a girl a nice time
When I entered, I had forty-five dollars
When I left I had one dime
Wasn’t that a beer drinkin' woman?
Don’t you know, man don’t you know?
She was a beer drinkin' woman
I don’t want to see her no more
Now when I spent down to my last dime
She says, «Daddy I know you’re not through»
I told her, «Yes, baby doll and the diploma belongs to you»
Wasn’t that a beer drinkin' woman?
Don’t you know, man don’t you know?
She was a beer drinkin' woman
And I don’t want to see her no more
She would often say, «Excuse me a minute
I’ve got to step around here»
And every time she’d come back
She’d say, «I want another quart of beer»
Wasn’t that a beer drinkin' woman?
Don’t you know, man don’t you know?
Boy, she was the toughest I met
Lord, she was a beer drinkin' woman
I don’t want to see her no more
I say, «I've got to step off baby
Anything else you would like?»
She said, «Daddy I’ll keep this table
If you promise me you’ll be back»
You know that was a beer drinkin' woman
Don’t you know, man don’t you know?
She was a beer drinkin' woman
I don’t wanna see her no more
I said, «I'm sorry baby, but I only have one more dime»
She said, «Daddy buy me a small bottle of beer
So I can concentrate my mind»
Wasn’t that a beer drinkin' woman?
Don’t you know, man don’t you know?
Lord, she was a beer drinkin' woman
I don’t wanna see her no more
