To give a girl a nice time
 When I entered I had forty-five dollars
 When I left I had one dime

 Wasn't that a beer drinkin' woman
 Don't you know, man don't you know
 She was a beer drinkin' woman
 I don't want to see her no more

 Now when I spent down to my last dime
 She says, "Daddy I know you're not through"
 I told her, "Yes, baby doll and the diploma belongs to you"

 Wasn't that a beer drinkin' woman
 Don't you know, man don't you know
 She was a beer drinkin' woman
 And I don't want to see her no more

 She would often say, "Excuse me a minute,
 I've got to step around here"
 And every time she'd come back
 She'd say, "I want another quart of beer"

 Wasn't that a beer drinkin' woman
 Don't you know, man don't you know
 Boy, she was the toughest I met
 Lord, she was a beer drinkin' woman
 I don't want to see her no more

 I say, "I've got to step off baby,
 anything else you would like?"
 She said, "Daddy I'll keep this table,
 If you promise me you'll be back"

 You know that was a beer drinkin' woman
 Don't you know, man don't you know?
 She was a beer drinkin' woman
 I don't wanna see her no more

 I says, "I'm sorry baby, but I only have one more dime"
 She said, "Daddy buy me a small bottle of beer,
 so I can concentrate my mind"

 Wasn't that a beer drinkin' woman?
 Don't you know, man don't you know
 Lord, she was a beer drinkin' woman
 I don't wanna see her no more
