Cocaine Blues / Whiskey Blues

Luke Jordan

Early one mornin' I was making my rounds,
I was drunk on whiskey an' I shot my woman down.
Shot her down and then went back to bed
An' I hid that lovin' forty four beneath my head.

Got up next mornin', had a good snort o' rum
Washed it down with whiskey and away I run.
Made a good run, but I run too slow
They overtook me way down South near Bendigo.

So come on all you fellas, listen to me,
Lay off that whiskey and let that O.P. be!
