Lyrics
Some drinkers beat their women.
Shame shame in these old bones
Some drinkers beat their women.
Shame shame in these old bones
Some drinkers beat their women.
Shame shame in these old bones
There’s only shame in these
bones.
Some drinkers lie to keep them.
Holes holes in this here soul
Some drinkers lie to keep them.
Holes holes in this here soul
Some drinkers lie to keep them.
Holes holes in this here soul
There’s holes there’s holes in this
soul
And if it’s change or go, I go.
Just like every wino I know.
If it’s change or go…
I go down to the river
Half a mind to jump on in
I wander in the water
Half a mind to jump on in
I go down to the river
Half a mind to jump on in
I’ve got a mind to jump in
Some drinkers die in winter
Cold cold in this dead world
Some drinkers die in winter
Dark dark in this black night
Some drinkers die in winter
Cold cold in this dead world
Well it’s devil cold in this world.
And if it’s change or go, I go.
Just like every wino I know.
If it’s change or go…
I go.
