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
