LIQUOR RIVER BLUES

if the river was rye whiskey
I wouldn't be afraid to drown
I got the liquor river blues

if the water was wine dark
I wouldn't ever leave a mark
I got the liquor river blues

if I were to drop right down
I wouldn't even make a sound
I got the liquor river blues

some men have all the luck
some get all the love
some have to pass the buck
and blame the stars above
some have to cry and weep
some simply go to sleep
some are laughing all the time
some moan and groan and whine
some of them get sitface drunk
and in the river they are sunk

so fill me up another glass
don't you be afraid to ask
I got the liquor river blues

and when you're standing on my grave
this is what you ought to say
he had the liquor river blues
