This here bottle’s as dry as my bones


And ol’ dry bones is gon’ hafta


Find a new home


Where the liquor is deep enough


To drown myself in


Bourbon and rye, scotch, vodka, tequila, and gin


Where every ol’ soul


Sets to bayin’ like hounds


Listen hard,  Im speakeasy bound




Coffee and hangovers


Go together like horses and stage coaches


Or broads with broaches


Who’s the hostess with the most-ess


A skirt is a broad is a dame is a bitch


I fell for Suzy-floozy


They found me in a ditch


I was hittin’ the bottle cause Suzy 


she don’t love me no more


But I’m back on my feet 


it’s time to even the score, even it up now




This here bottle’s as dry as my bones


And ol’ dry bones is gon’ hafta


Find a new home


Where the liquor is deep enough


To drown myself in


Bourbon and rye, scotch, vodka, tequila, and gin


Where every ol’ soul


Sets to bayin’ like hounds


Listen hard,  Im speakeasy bound




Now gin has mostly been my drink of choice


To wash away my sins


Only trouble is when I’m lit


Well I go and sin again


But I found a means for me


To defeat perpetuality


I get my SCOTCH on rocks


So when OUR eyes lock


I can throw away the key




This here bottle’s as dry as my bones


And ol’ dry bones is gon’ hafta


Find a new home


Where the liquor is deep enough


To drown myself in


Bourbon and rye, scotch, vodka, tequila and gin


Where every ol’ soul


Sets to bayin’ like hounds


Listen hard, Im speakeasy bound
