Well now I ain't gonna tell nobody,
That I ain't gonna drink no more
I just can't feel welcome, no place I go
Y'know I just keep on drinkin',
Be tryin' to drink my blues away
The little girl that I'm lovin',
She's really bittersweet,
She's got everything that grateful Pinetop needs
Y'know I just keep on drinkin',
Be tryin' to drink my blues away
Now it was early this mornin',
My blues came fallin' down
I felt I heard the 'voice',
But weren't no whiskey 'round
Y'know I just keep on drinkin',
Be tryin' to drink my blues away
Instrumental verse
Now you may call me crazy,
But I ain't nobody's fool
You can hitch me to your buggy,
An' I turn out like a buckin' mule
Y'know I just keep on drinkin',
Be tryin' to drink my blues away
I'm gonna sing this time, now, baby,
I ain't gonna drink no more
My time rolls around, I've gotta leave, I gotta go
Y'know I just keep on drinkin',
Be tryin' to drink my blues away
