Gamblin' Bar Room Blues

Yo-hee, yo-hee
You're just as drunk as me
Yo-hee, yo-hee
Headin' for the deep blue sea

I went down to the corner, just for to meet my pal
I found him on the sidewalk, talking to my gal
I went back to the bar room, to get another drink of gin
But the first thing I knew I was reeling, rocking drunk again

Yo-hee, yo-hee
You're just as drunk as me
Yo-hee, yo-hee
Headin' for the deep blue sea

I kept on drinking liquor, to way out in the night
My pal came into the bar room and we had an awful fight
I reached down for my razor and then we messed around
But when I drew my pistol, I quickly smoked him down

Yo-hee, yo-hee
You're just as drunk as me
Yo-hee, yo-hee
Headin' for the deep blue sea

So, I headed on back to the bar room, stopping in at the bar
And there I met a policeman, sitting in a motor car
We kept drinking lots of liquor, that flat-footed cop and I
I thought he would never leave me. I knew that he had to die

And I laid my head on the bar room floor
I'll never get drunk anymore
I pawned my watch, my golden chain
I pawned my baby's diamond ring

Yo-hee, yo-hee
You're just as drunk as me
Yo-hee, yo-hee
Headin' for the deep blue sea

Yo-hee, yo-hee
You're just as drunk as me
Yo-hee, yo-hee
Headin' for the deep blue sea
