Bad Whiskey Blues

I drink so much whiskey, I stagger home in my sleep
I drink so much whiskey, I stagger home in my sleep
Well soon every morning, I'm staggerin' up and down the street
If I can't get no whiskey, give me some gin or good wine
The way I keep on worryin', I stay drunk all the time
I drink so much whiskey, I stagger home in my sleep
Well soon every morning, I'm staggerin' up and down the street
When I ain't got no liquor, look where everything goes all wrong
That's why I get evil, me and the devil can't get along
I drink so much whiskey, I stagger home in my sleep
Well soon every morning, I'm staggerin' up and down the street
It was old bad whiskey, made me lose my best boyfriend
But I can't help it, I would drink until the end
I drink so much whiskey, I stagger home in my sleep
Well soon every morning, I'm staggerin' up and down the street
