Too much drinking

I went down to the juke joint

See what I could find

I went down to the juke joint

See what I could find

Well I lost all my money

Too much drinking on my mind

There was a girl down from Jackson

Oh my she looked fine

Yeah there was a girl down from Jackson

Oh my how she looked so fine

She took off with all that I had

Too much drinking on my mind

Now I'm laid out in a jailhouse

But I did not do no crime

Now I'm laid out in a jailhouse

But I did not do no crime

Where I was I don't remember

Too much drinking on my mind

Yeah, they fixed me up real good

Yeah, they fixed me up real fine

I could not think of no alibi

Cos too much drinking on my mind
