Cold Gin (Live In Sioux City, Iowa 12/30/82)

I wanna tell you something, you know
While we were waiting backstage to come on
We decided it was time to have a little bit of liquid refreshments
I'm talkin' 'bout a little alcohol!
Everybody likes to take a taste o' alcohol once in a while, right?

Well, we go walk over to the table and I see
I see this bottle of Southern Comfort laying there
I went, "Uh-uh, nah-ah"
So I look a little further down, I see this bottle of scotch
You know that's not for us
Now, we let our fingers do the walkin' down to the end of the table
And what do you think's down at the end of that table?

(Cold gin)
I can't hear you
(Cold gin)
I can't hear you, cold gin!

Oh, yeah! Alright!
Alright!

My heater's broke, I'm so tired
I need some fuel to build a fire
The girl next door, her lights are out, yeah, yeah
The landlord's gone, I'm a
Yeah, I'm down and out (down and out)

Ooh, it's cold gin time again
Know it'll always win
Cold gin time again
You know it's the only thing
That keeps us together (keeps us together)

It's time to leave and get another quart
Around the corner at the liquor store
The cheapest stuff is all I need
To get me back on my feet again
On my feet again (on my feet again)

Ooh, it's cold gin time again
You know it'll always win
Cold gin time again
Know it's the only thing
That keeps us together

Ooh, it's cold gin time again
Know it'll always win
Cold gin time again
You know it's the only thing
That keeps us together

Yeah!
