Lyrics Johnny Winter

Johnny Winter

Cheap Tequila

Cheap perfume, sweet perfume

The lonely smell that fills the room

Roses in your low-rent tomb

A picture made of cheap perfume

Sad old rag, sad young hag

Clothes that hide the early sag

Sequins on a lame bag

The sparkles of a sad old rag

Drink up and be happy

Live just for today

Drown in cheap tequila

And flush yourself away

Worn out dreams, washed up scheme

Blueprint for a death machine

Scarred wrists on a movie queen

A picture of a worn out dream

Drink up and be happy

Live just for today

Drown in cheap tequila

And flush yourself away

[Instrumental]

Drink up and be happy

Live just for today

Drown in cheap tequila

And flush yourself away

(2x)

Flush yourself away

Yeah, flush yourself away
