Bottle Of Whiskey - Bernard Allison
I left home at the age of ten
I ain't never been back again
Got me a gig a travelin' minstrel show
And so many women would've let him go
Tell ya' what I'm gonna do
Drink a bottle of whiskey
Then I'll play the blues for you
Play the blues
I was married to a selfish wife
I had to leave and take back by life
Me and my kids you know we are real tight
God bless their souls 'cause they doin' alright
Tell ya' what I'm gonna do
Drink a bottle of whiskey
Then I'll play the blues for you
I'll play the blues for you
Way down in Clarksdale most folks are poor
They don't smile like they did before
You know the Delta got alotta soul
Right on time always made of soul
Tell ya' what I'm gonna do
Drink a bottle of whiskey
Then I'll play the blues for you
Tell ya' what I'm gonna do
Drink a bottle of whiskey
Then I'll play the blues for you
