My woman walked out on me today
She left me and I'm sure by now she's long gone away
So barkeep can you help me, 'cause I sure miss her a lot
Pour me a shot of the best [bad word] you've got

I found her waiting at the train depo and she wouldn't even talk
She's never ever [bad word] back home and it's all my fault
I did her wrong for so long and I sure did do it a lot
So pour me a shot of the best [bad word] you've got

Barkeep fix me up something just as strong as can be
I've never been a drinking man but it's worth a try to see
Whether or not it'll make me forget her, it might work and it might not
So pour me a shot of the best [bad word] you've got

That wistle blew, the train pulled away and after it I began [bad word] She stuck out her head and said: 'I hope you're proud of what you've done...'
And she headed all down the track. - Did she look back? - She did not...
So pour me a shot of the best [bad word] you've got

Barkeep fix me up something just as strong as can be
I've never been a drinking man but it's worth a try to see
Whether or not it'll make me forget her, it might work and it might not
So pour me a shot of the best [bad word] you've got

It just might do me right and I just might like it a lot
So pour me a shot of the best [bad word] you've got
Pour me a shot of the best [bad word] you've got
