Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Whatcha Gonna Do... (Fiddlin' John Carson
I do not know that this is what the OP requested.

Whatcha gonna do when the liquor gives out, sugar babe?
Whatcha gonna do when the liquor gives out,
Stand on the corner with your mouth in a pout, Sweet thing.

Oh now baby, I'm tired of you, sweet thing.
Oh, baby, I'm tired of you,
I ain't came further for the way you do, Sweet thing.

(Fiddle)

*Ain t getting much of that cold corn still, sugar babe
Ain t getting much of that cold corn still,
Till my darlin' did it (well) Sweet thing

Whatcha gonna do when the liquor gives out, sweet thing?
Whatcha gonna do when the liquor gives out,
Stand on the corner with your mouth in a pout, Sweet thing.

Oh now baby, I'm tired of you, sugar babe.
Oh Lord baby, I'm tired of you,
I ain't came further for the way you do, Sweet thing.

(Fiddle)

Standin' on the corner with my hat in my hand, Sugar Babe
Standin' on the corner with my hat in my hand;
Lookin for the woman ain't got no man, Sweet thing.

Whatcha gonna do when the liquor gives out, sugar babe?
Whatcha gonna do when the liquor gives out,
Stand on the corner with your mouth in a pout, Sweet thing.

Oh now baby, I'm tired of you... (Fiddle)* hard to understand this line

There is a sixty-second sample at

of Fiddlin' John Carson doing the song, and it closely aligns with the one posted earlier in this post. Sound quality is not great.
