lyrics

The first time I drank whiskey I don’t remember well
How many drinks I had that night no human tongue can tell
Until one, two, three AM my judgment did not fail
Until I lost my pants and I crashed my car and I ended up in jail

The whiskey-o, the whiskey-o, the whiskey-o
Don’t want nothing with the whiskey-o

My girl she went out on the town to have a little fun
My friends they later told me she was not the only one
She had time for my friend Johnny, she had time for my friend Tom
She had time for one, two, three, four times, times to do me wrong

The women-o, the women-o, the women-o
Don’t want nothing with the women-o

I went down to Louisiana to fix up my poor heart
I took a stack of dollar bills with which I would soon part
I gambled in the parlors, I gambled in the yards
I gambled my last dollar on a goddamned game of cards

The gamblers-o, the gamblers-o, the gamblers-o
Don’t want nothing with the gamblers-o

The whiskey-o, the whiskey-o, the whiskey-o
Don’t want nothing with the whiskey-o
