Lyrics
I just got up the sun is high
Where's my baby gonna sleep tonight
I'm gonna get me a bottle 'cause I'm feelin' kinda dry
REFRAIN
I got the gun slingin' mean thinkin' hard drinking one woman blues
And my best friend's the barman fillin' me full of the booze
He says I'm gonna get dead on day-If I carry on this way
But until I get my baby I got nothin' left to lose
My Friend Dan came by last night
We drank some whisky and we started up a fight
So we drank some more and went out into the night
We went downtown and found a bar
We watched the ladies dancin' for an hour
But then I went back home cause I couldn't drink her off my mind
REFRAIN
I got the gun slingin' mean thinkin' hard drinkin' one woman blues
And my best friend's the barman fillin' me full of the booze
He says I'm gonna get dead some day if I carry on this way
But until I get my baby I got nothin' left to loose.
One more drink cant do no harm
It stops me shakin' and it keeps me kinda warm
I know I outa call her up and say it hurts when she's away
