Well I got to get drunk and I sure do dread it Cause I know just what I'll do I'm gonna spend my money callin' everybody honey And wind up singin' the blues I'll spend my whole paycheck on some old wreck And brother I can name you a few Well 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 want to see me holler, see me spend my dollar And I wouldn't think of lettin' 'em down There's a lot of doctors who tell me
