11 Sep 05 - 12:41 AM (#1560832) Subject: Lyr Add: LET ME GO HOME, WHISKEY (Shifty Henry) From: Jim Dixon I pieced this together from several sound samples, so it might not be complete, and the verses might not be in the right order. LET ME GO HOME, WHISKEY John "Shifty" Henry CHORUS: Let me go home, whiskey. Let me walk out the door. Let me go home, whiskey. Let me walk out the door. I got orders from my baby not to come home late [or "juiced" or "drunk"] no more. I stopped by a place to see a friend of mine. I dropped in for a minute, but I overstayed my time. CHORUS So why does whiskey make me lose my head? Got me sittin' at the bar when I should be home in bed. CHORUS [Originally recorded by Amos Milburn, 1953. Also recorded by Snooks Eaglin, Asleep at the Wheel, and several others.] |
