BLUE BLEEZING BLIND DRUNK I'll go and I'll get blue bleezing blind drunk Just to give Mickey a warning And just for to spite I will stay out all night And come rolling home drunk in the morning Now friends, I have a sad story A very sad story to tell I married a man for his money And he's worse than the devil himself For when Mickey comes home in the evening He batters me all black and blue He knocks me about from the kitchen From the bedroom right through to the room For of whiskey I ne'er was a lover But what can a poor woman do I'll go and I'll drown all my sorrows But I wish I could drown Mickey too Recorded by Sheila Stewart (Stewarts of Blair) @drink @marriage filename[ BLUBLDNK SOF |
Blue Bleezing Blind Drunk (As sung by Sheila Stewart of Blairgowrie; she learnt it from her mother, Belle, who in turn had it from "an old ploughman", probably in the early 1950s. Midi made from the notation in Ailie Munro's The Folk Music Revival in Scotland) |
