One bourbon, One Scotch, and one beer
I said hey mister bartender come in here!
I want another drink and I want it now
My baby she's gone, she's been gone tonight
I aint's seen my girl since the night before last
I wanna get drunk, get her off of my mind
I wanna a bourbon, one scotch and one beer
And then I sat there, Drinking,
Gettin high, mellow, knocked out, feelin good.
And after a while, I looked on the wall
At the old clock.
By that time it was 11:30
Gettin i little late
I looked down at the bar, at the bartender
I said, Hey!
What do you want?
One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer
Well my baby's gone, she's been gone tonight
I ain't seen my baby since the night before last
I wanna get drunk, get her off of my mind
One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer
And I saty there, I was drinking
Getting stoned, and "dupe dupe"
Getting a little buzy in the head
And after a while, I looked on the wall again
And by that time, it was a quarter to two
Last call for alcohol
Then I looked down at the bar, at the bartender
I said, Hey Mr. Bartender!
What do you want this time?
One bourbon, one scotch and one beer
