One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer

Want to tell you a story

About the house-man blues

I come home one Friday

Had to tell the landlady I'da lost my jobShe said that don't confront me

Long as I get my money next Friday

Now next Friday come I didn't get the rent

And out the door I wentSo I goes to the landlady

I said you let me slide?

I'll have the rent for you in month

Next I don't knowSo said let me slide it on

I notice when I come home in the evening

She ain't got nothing nice to say to me

But for five year she was so niceLoh' she was lovy-dovy

I come home one particular evening

The landlady said

You got the rent money yet?I said no, can't find no job

Therefore I ain't got no money

To pay the rent

She said I don't believeYou're tryin' to find no job

Said I seen you today you was standin' on the corner

Leaning up against a post

I said but I'm tired,I've been walkin' all day

She said that don't concern me

Long as I get my money next Friday

Now next Friday come I didn't have the rentAnd out the door I went

So I go down the streets

Down to my good friend's house

I said look manI'm outdoors you know

Can I stay with you maybe a couple days?

He said let me go and ask my wife

He come out of the houseI could see it in his face

I know that was no

He said I don't know man

Ah she kinda funny, you knowI said I know,

Everybody funny, now you funny too

So I go back home

I tell the landlady I got a job,I'm gonna pay the rent

She said yeah? I said oh yeah

And then she was so nice

Loh' she was lovy-dovySo I go in my room,

Pack up my things and I go

I slip on out the back door

And down the streets I goShe a-howlin' about the front rent,

She'll be lucky to get any back rent

She ain't gonna get none of it

So I stop in the local bar you know peopleI go to the bar, I ring my coat,

I call the bartender

Said look man, come down here,

He got down thereSo what you want?

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

Well I ain't seem my baby

Since I don't know whenI've been drinking bourbon, whiskey, scotch and gin

Gonna get high man I'm gonna get loose

Need me a triple shot of that juiceGonna get drunk don't you have no fear

I want one bourbon,

One scotch and one beer

One bourbon, one scotch, one beerBut I'm sitting now at the bar

I'm getting drunk, I'm feelin' mellow

I'm drinkin' bourbon,

I'm drinkin' scotch,I'm drinking beer

Looked down the bar,

Here come the bartender

I said look man, come down hereSo what you want?

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

No I ain't seen my baby since

The night before lastGota get a drink man

I'm gonna get gassed

Gonna get high man

I ain't had enoughNeed me a triple shot of that stuff

Gonna get drunk

Won't you listen right here

I want one bourbon,One shot and one beer

One bourbon, one scotch, one beerNow by this time

I'm plenty high

You know when your mouth a getting dry

You're plenty highLooked down the bar

I say to my bartender

i said look man,

Come down here,He got down there

So what you want this time?

I said look man,

What time is it?He said the clock on the wall

Say three o'clock

Last call for alcohol,

So what you need?One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

No I ain't' seen my baby since

A nigh' and a week

Gotta get drunk manTill I can't even speak

Gonna get high man

Listen to me

One drink ain't enoughJack you better make it three

I want to get drunk

I'm gonna make it clear

I want one bourbon,

One scotch and one beer,

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
