One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer

I wanna tell you a story
About the house rent blues
I come home one Friday
Had to tell the landlady I'd done lost my job
Mm-mm, she said that don't confront me
Long as I get my money next Friday
Now, next Friday come, I didn't get the rent
And out the door I went

One bourbon, one scotch and one beer

Well, I ain't seen my baby since I don't know when
I've been drinking bourbon whiskey, scotch and gin
Gonna get high, man, I'm gonna get loose
Need me a triple shot of that juice
Gonna get drunk, don't you have no fear
I want one bourbon, one scotch and one beer

One bourbon, one scotch and one beer

I ain't seen my baby since the night before last
Gonna get a drink, man, I'm gonna get gassed
Gotta get high, man, I ain't had enough
Need me a triple shot of that stuff
Gonna get drunk, won't you listen right here?
I want one bourbon, one shot and one beer

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

No, I ain't seen my baby since a night on a week
Gotta get drunk, man, so I can't even speak
Gonna get high, man, listen to me
One drink ain't enough, jack, you better make it three
I wanna get drunk, I'm gonna make it real clear:
I want one bourbon, one scotch and one beer

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer (Yeah!)
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer (C'mon, now!)
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer (Woo, yeah baby!)
