Dannicus Live - Gotta Quit Drinkin songtekst
Je score:
Twas a fairy in my pint of rum I seen her winking at me She became more real with every drink So I drank to set her free I finished my bottle she came right alive I tasted her lips so sweet They said I was kissing Billy O'Brien They threw my ass to the street Twas a leprechaun in my tankard of beer I heard him whisper to me He promised me gold more than I could hold If I would just drink him free I drank the ale to the very last drop And he handed a fortune to me They said I was robbing poor Billy O'Brien They threw my ass to the street I gotta quit drinkin I gotta quit drinkin I swear I tell you no lie I'm gonna quit drinkin I'm gonna quit drinkin I swear on my dear mother's eyes We been best friends for many a year And jail is hopeless to me I'm gonna quit drinkin I'm gonna quit drinkin Now Billy have pity on me I was drinkin a bottle of Irish whiskey A unicorn I did see She told me she'd take me to fame and fortune If I could just drink her free I finished the bottle and jumped on her back And up to the the door we did flee They told me I was mounting poor Billy's young wife So they threw my ass to the street I gotta quit drinkin I gotta quit drinkin I swear I tell you no lie I'm gonna quit drinkin I'm gonna quit drinkin I swear on my dear mother's eyes We been best friends for many a year And jail is hopeless to me I'm gonna quit drinkin I'm gonna quit drinkin Now Billy have pity on me I sat in a pub sipping one day When a bottle of wine called to me A pretty young genie all scantily clad Was promising favors for free I purchased a bottle and gave it to Billy He drank all the wine straightaway He kissed his genie, they both disappeared And they've never been seen to this day I gotta keep drinkin I gotta keep drinkin There must be some magic for me I'll drink every bottle I can't stop to dawdle I just gotta set them all free I gotta keep drinkin I gotta keep drinkin Remember the genie so sweet I know I could free her The next time I see her If they'd stop throwing my ass to the street
