Lyrics
Drinking Woman
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A woman who drinks
Drinks, and she dances and winks
And she rests her head
And thinks of drinks
She thinks of drinks
And sleep
Though it's hours before
She sinks into bed and links
The things that she thinks to drinks
She likes to drink
And she loves to lean
And she breathes and bleeds
Alcohol
Oh oh oh...
