[DV = deep voice, SV = squeaky voice]

[DV:] Boy, you listen to your old Pappy 
[SV:] Yeah, Pappy
[DV:] And stop drinking so much 
[SV:] I'm-I'm ain't been doing so much drinking, Pappy 
[DV:] Shut up, boy! You drink all day and you drink all night and you know, son, that that ain't right 
[SV:] Oh Pappy, you just give me a chance. I, I can, I...
[DV:] Shut up, boy! Boy, you're lookin' thin as a twig 
[SV:] I know that...
[DV:] Look likes your dear old Pappy - about to blow your wig 
[SV:] 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 

[DV:]
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
