Lyrics
DRINKIN? AND WOMEN
WHEN I WAS YOUNG MY MUMMA WARNED ME ?BOUT DRINKIN?
SHE TOLD ME SON YOU KNOW THAT BOTTLE?LL BRING YOU DOWN
IT?LL TAKE YOUR MIND AND MAKE YOU PAY
RIGHT IN THE GUTTER?S WHERE YOU?LL LAY
AND YOU?LL HAVE SORROWS TOO MANY THERE FOR YOU TO DROWN
MY DADDY TOLD ME ALL ABOUT WOMEN
HE SAID NOW SON YOU KNOW THEY?LL ONLY BREAK YOUR HEART
THEY?LL TAKE YOUR MONEY PLAY YOU FOR FOOL
AND IN LIFES RACE I?M TELLIN? YOU
YOU START OFF EVEN BUT IN THE END YOU WIND UP LAST
CHORUS: #1.
BUT I?M A WOMANISING MAN, I?M DRINKIN? BOOZE MUCH AS I CAN
AND YOU WON?T FIND NOBODY HAPPIER THAN ME
I?D SOONER DIE AT 68, AND SWAGGER UP TO HEAVEN?S GATE
INSTEAD OF MAKING NINETY NINE IN MISERY
SOLO:
YOU KNOW MY FRIENDS AND DOCTORS TOLD ME ?BOUT SMOKIN? THEY SAID NOW BOY THOSE CIGARETTES?LL RUIN YOUR LIFE
THE EVIDENCE IS CRYSTAL CLEAR
THE ?REAPER GRIM? HE?S WAITING NEAR
TO TAKE YOU DOWN IF YOU DON?T HEED OUR GOOD ADVICE
CHORUS: #2.
BUT I?M A WOMANISING MAN, I DRINK AND SMOKE MUCH AS I CAN
AND YOU WON?T FIND NOBODY HAPPIER THAN ME
I?D SOONER DIE AT 68, AND SWAGGER UP TO HEAVEN?S GATE
INSTEAD OF MAKING NINETY NINE IN MISERY
I?M LOVIN? WOMEN, DRINKIN? N SMOKIN? YEAH
