lyrics

[v1]
I've been drunk, I've been cheatin’,
I can't help my wicked ways
All the liqueur I've been drinkin',
keeps me far away from grace

[v2]
Yes, the love that I've known,
has been raw and never sweet
As a favor bought and sold,
but brothers, don't you weep

[ch]
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord
For givin' me thirst, an' pretty girls

[v3]
This ol’ hand is gettin’ weaker,
I’m longing for to rest
You’re welcome Grim Reaper,
take this burden off my chest

[v4]
I know I won't be foolin',
St. Peter in the skies
Down to hell is where I'm falling,
but brothers, don't you cry

[v5]
Now I'm waiting for my coffin,
my deed is almost done
Soon my bed will be decaying
in the cold and silent ground

[v6]
For the women young and old,
for the bottles big and small
For the good times I recall,
I'm grateful for them all!
