Boy, you listen to your old Pappy   Yeah, Pappy   And stop drinking so much   I'm, I'm ain't been doing so much drinking, Pappy   Shut up, boy! You drink all day and you drink all night   And son you know that, that ain't right      Oh Pappy, you just give me a chance, I, I can, I   Shut up, boy! Boy, you're lookin' thin as a twig   I know that   Look liked your dear old Pappy you're about to blow your wig   Oh I'm gonna blow my wig, Pappy      What's the use of getting sober   When you're gonna get drunk again   Oh, Sam done something fine   When he bought that good whiskey, beer and wine      I love my whiskey and I love my gin   Every time you see me I'm in my sin   So what's the use of getting sober   When you're gonna get drunk again      I went out last night about half past one   Thought I'd whoop it up a little and have some fun   I got me a half pint about half past two   Mmm, mmm, the way I was feeling you know what I wanna do      Got me a pint about half past four   Felt so good, went out and got me some more   Got me a quart about half past five   Boy, that was so nice didn't know if I was dead or alive      So what's the use of getting sober   If you're gonna get drunk again   Oh, Sam done something fine   When he bought that good whiskey, beer and wine      I love my whiskey and I love my gin   Every time you see me I'm in my sin   So what's the use of getting sober   When you're gonna get drunk again      Well I've been thinking   But I keep drinking   I guess I'm 'bout lose my mind
