Hope that this is of assistance. Regards, Steve Latimer |

Well, yeah, people, I am a poor drunken-hearted boy. I have a whole ocean of trouble, and just a little half a pint of joy. I drink because I'm worried; I don't drink because I'm dry. I know if I keep on drinkin', I'm liable to drink away my life. Baby, bring me another half a pint. I'm tryin to drown these blues. Yes, I am. People, if you had my troubles, baby, I know you would be drinkin' too. Baby, if I keep on drinkin' I know I can't last too long Woman, if I keep on drinkin', people, you know I can't last too long. That's all right, 'cause when I'm dead and buried, please think about me when you hear this song. |
