Wanna tell you a story,
about the house-of blues [bad word] home one Friday,
had to tell the landlady I'd ldone ost my job
She said that [bad word] me,
long as I get my money next Friday
Now next [bad word] I didn't have the rent,
and out the door I went
So I go to the landlady,
I said, "You let me slide?
I'll have the rent for you tomorrow.
the next day I don't know"
So she let me slide it on you know people,
I notice when [bad word] home in the evening
She ain't got nothing nice to say to me,
but for five year she was so nice
Lord' she was lovy-dovy, [bad word] home one particular evening
The landlady said, "You got the rent money yet?",
I said, "No, can't find no job"
Therefore I ain't got no money to pay the rent"
She said "I don't believe you're tryin' to find no job" "I seen you today you was standin' on a corner,
leaning up against a post"
I said "Yeah But I'm tired, I've been walkin' all day"
She said "That don't confront me,
long as I get my money next Friday"
Now next [bad word] I didn't have the rent,
and out the door I went
So I go down the streets,
down to my good friend's house
I said "Look man I'm outdoors you know,
can I stay with you maybe a couple days"
He said "Uh, Let me go and ask my wife" [bad word] out of the house,
I could see in his face
I know that was no
He said "I don't know man, ah she kinda funny, and all
I said "I know, everybody funny, now you funny too"
So I go back home
I tell the landlady I got a job, I'm gonna pay the rent
She said "Yeah?" I said "Oh yeah"
And then she was so nice,
lord' she was lovey-dovey
So I go in my room, pack up my things and I go,
I slip on out the back door and down the streets I go
She talking all hallering the front rent, she'll be lucky to get any back rent,
she ain't gonna get none of it
So I stop in the local bar you know people,
I go to the bar, I hang up my coat, I call the bartender
Said "Look [bad word] down here", he got down there
"So what you want"
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
Well I ain't seen my baby since I don't know when,
I've been drinking bourbon, whiskey, scotch and gin
Gonna get high man I'm gonna get loose,
need me a triple shot of that juice
Gonna get [bad word] don't you have no fear
I want one bourbon, one scotch and one beer
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
But I'm sitting now at the bar,
I'm getting [bad word]  I'm feelin' mellow
I'm drinkin' bourbon, I'm drinkin' scotch, I'm drinkin' beer
Looked down the bar, [bad word] the bartender
I said "Look [bad word] down here"
"So what you want?"
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
No I ain't seen my baby since the night before last,
gotta get a drink man I'm gonna get gased
Gonna get high man I ain't had enough,
need me a triple shot of that stuff
Gonna get [bad word] won't you listen right here,
I want one bourbon, one scotch and one beer
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

Now by this time I'm plenty high,
you know when your mouth is getting dry you're plenty high
Looked down the bar I say to my bartender
I said "Look [bad word] down here", he got down there
"So what you want this time?"
I said "Look man, a-what time is it?"
He said "The clock on the wall say three
