I'll rather be sloppy drunk, than anything I know
I'll rather be sloppy drunk, than anything I know
Give me another half of pint
, boy, then you will see me go
And I love that
moonshine
whiskey and I'll tell you what I do
And I love that moonshine whiskey and I'll tell you what I do
The reason is why I drink, I'm just trying to get along with you
I say, "Ah, bring me another half of pint"
I say, "Hmm, bring me another half of pint"
Well, I believe I'll get drunk, boy, and then we gonna rock this joint
Na, I love that moonshine whiskey and I'll tell you what I do
Yes, I love that moonshine whiskey and I'll tell you what I do
The reason is why I drink, I'm just trying to get along with you
I say, "Oh, oh, bring me another half of pint"
I say, "Hmm, hm, bring me another half of pint"
Well, I believe I'll get drunk, boy, then we gonna rock this joint
