Classic Poem

(I'm dead drunk this morning, daddy,
behave yourself)

You knowed I was drunk when I lay down across your bed
You knowed I was drunk when I lay down across your bed
All the whiskey I drank, it's gone right to my head

Oh give me Houston, that's the place I crave
Oh give me Houston, that's the place I crave
(Oh play it Papa Charlie Hill)

So when I'm dry I can get whiskey some place

Whiskey whiskey is some folks' down / fall
(Ain't none a my downfall,
don't put that washing out)
Oh whiskey whiskey is some folks' down / fall
But if I don't get whiskey I ain't no good at all
(You ain't by your self, neither)

When I was in Houston, drunk most every day
When I was in Houston, drunk most every day
I drank so much whiskey I thought I'd pass away

Have you ever been drunk and slept in all your clothes
(No sir, I ain't never did that,
no sir)
Have you ever been drunk and slept in all your clothes
And when you wake up, feel like you want a dose

I'm gonna get drunk, daddy, just one more time
(Go ahead, get drunk,
and stay drunk)
I'm gonna get drunk, daddy, just one more time
(Yes, stay drunk; I don't care)
'Cause when I'm drunk, nothing don't worry my mind
