Whiskey Store Blues Lyrics

Whiskey Store Blues - Memphis Slim

I worked all day long

Out in the cold and snow

I come home looking for my supper

You're around some whiskey store

You're just a whiskey drinking woman

We never will get very far

Because every time

I wanna find you

I just go around some whiskey bar

I leave house written grocery bill

At home every week

And every Monday morning

The landlord puts my clothes

Out in the street

Because you're the whiskey drinking woman

We never will get very far

Well then every time I wanna find you

You're laying around some whiskey bar

You know our friends came around

To give us a nice time

You say "Hurry let's go to the liquor store

Before they change their mind"

Just a whiskey drinking woman

We never will get very far

Well then every time

I wanna find you

You're laying around some whiskey bar

MUSIC

Now so you can pack up baby

Out for yourself you must go

I never see you nowhere

Unless I stop at some whiskey store

Just a whiskey drinking woman

We never will get very far

Well then every time I wanna find you

You're laying around some whiskey bar
