I Gotta Get Drunk

Well, I gotta get drunk and I sure do dread it

'Cause I know just what I'm gonna do

I'm gonna spend my money, calling everybody, honey

Wind up singin' the blues

Spend my whole paycheck on some old wreck

Brother I can name you a few

I gotta get drunk and I sure do dread it

'Cause I know just what I'm gonna do

Well, I gotta get drunk, I can't stay sober

There's lots of good people in town

They're gonna see me holler, see me spend my dollar

And I wouldn't think of letting 'em down

There's a lot of doctors that tell me

I'd better stop putting it down

Oh, but there's more old drunks than there are old doctors

So I guess I'd better have another round

Well, I gotta get drunk, I can't stay sober

There's lots of good people in town

They wanna see me holler, see me spend my dollar

And watch me go roarin' around

Now there's a lot of doctors who'll tell me

I better start slowin' it down

I say there's more old drunks than there are old doctors

So I guess we better have ourselves another round
