Hi folks, today and everday...I Want One Bourbon, One Scotch and One Beer!
Lyrics :
- Wanna tell you a story,
about the house-rent blues
I come home one Friday,
had to tell the landlady I'd done lost my job.
She said that don't comfort me,
long as I get my money next Friday.
Now next Friday come I didn't get the rent,
and out the door I went.
- So I goes to the landlady,
I said: You let me slide???
I'll have the rent for you tomorrow,
the next day I don't know
So said let me slide it on you know people,
I notice when I come home in the evening.
She ain't got nothing nice to say to me,
but for five year she was so nice.
Loh' she was lovy-dovy,
I come home one particular evening.
The landlady said: You got the rent money yet???
I said: No, can't find no job...
Therefore I ain't got no money to pay the rent.
She said: I don't believe you're tryin' to find no job!!!
Said: I seen you today you was standin' on a corner,
leaning up against a post...
I said: But I'm tired, I've been walkin' all day...
She said: That don't confront me,
long as I get my money next Friday.
Now next Friday come I didn't have the rent,
and out the door I went...
- So, I go down the streets,
down to my good friend's house.
I said: Look man I'm outdoors you know,
can I stay with you maybe a couple days???
He said: Uh, Let me go and ask my wife...
He come out of the house,
I could see in his face
I know that was no...
He said: I don't know man, ah she kinda funny, you know...
I said: I know, everybody funny, now you funny too.
So I go back home.
I tell the landlady I got a job, I'm gonna pay the rent
She said: Yeah???
I said: Oh yeah!!!
And then she was so nice,
loh' she was lovy-dovy.
So I go in my room, pack up my things and I go,
I slip on out the back door and down the streets I go.
She a-hollerin' about the front rent, she'll be lucky to get any back rent,
she ain't gonna get none of it.
So I stop in the local bar you know people,
I go to the bar, I ring my coat, I call the bartender...
Said: Look man, come down here, he got down there.
So what you want?
- One bourbon, one scotch, one beer...
Well I ain't seen my baby since I don't know when,
I've been drinking bourbon, whiskey, scotch and gin.
Gonna get high man I'm gonna get loose,
need me a triple shot of that
juice.
Gonna get drunk don't you have no fear.
I want one bourbon, one scotch and one beer...
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer...
- But I'm sitting now at the bar,
I'm getting drunk, I'm feelin' mellow.
I'm drinkin' bourbon, I'm drinkin' scotch, I'm drinkin' beer...
Looked down the bar, here come the bartender
I said: Look man, come down here.
So what you want?
