lyrics
Up in the mornin' at 6 a.m.
Perk up my ass with a glass of gin
Take my pills and I'm outta the door
By the next a.m. I'll be face in the floor
Got no brains, yeah I don't care
I'm nothin' but a boozehound, gaspin' for air
Chorus:
I ain't nothin' but a boozehound
I ain't nothin' but a boozehound
Always lookin' for another round
Yeah, I ain't nothin' but a boozehound
Whiskey and wine, drink till I'm blind
I'm nothin' but a boozehound outta my mind
I live inside my local bar
I drink too much to own a car
This don't bother the dames too much
'Cause by the fourth drink, they're lookin' to touch
The ladies they love me, but for only one night
I'm nothin' but a boozehound... right?
<Chorus>
Bridge:
A gin and tonic to wet my whistle
The martini atomic, the patriot missile
Alabama slammer, and the slow concussion
The vodka in my hammer and my white russian
And a little bit of jaeger to tie off the night
Well, I'm nothin' but a boozehound-
<Chorus>
Got a lot of liquor, boy I feel fine
Got in a car that wasn't mine
Johnny law will soon be on my ass
I'll sleep it off in jail after the crash
Well, I'm often hunted down by the police
But by the next night I'll be back on the streets 'cause
<Chorus>
Perk up my ass with a glass of gin
Take my pills and I'm outta the door
By the next a.m. I'll be face in the floor
Got no brains, yeah I don't care
I'm nothin' but a boozehound, gaspin' for air
Chorus:
I ain't nothin' but a boozehound
I ain't nothin' but a boozehound
Always lookin' for another round
Yeah, I ain't nothin' but a boozehound
Whiskey and wine, drink till I'm blind
I'm nothin' but a boozehound outta my mind
I live inside my local bar
I drink too much to own a car
This don't bother the dames too much
'Cause by the fourth drink, they're lookin' to touch
The ladies they love me, but for only one night
I'm nothin' but a boozehound... right?
<Chorus>
Bridge:
A gin and tonic to wet my whistle
The martini atomic, the patriot missile
Alabama slammer, and the slow concussion
The vodka in my hammer and my white russian
And a little bit of jaeger to tie off the night
Well, I'm nothin' but a boozehound-
<Chorus>
Got a lot of liquor, boy I feel fine
Got in a car that wasn't mine
Johnny law will soon be on my ass
I'll sleep it off in jail after the crash
Well, I'm often hunted down by the police
But by the next night I'll be back on the streets 'cause
