John Lee Hooker
Whiskey and Wimmen’
[Intro]
(Whiskey and wimmen)

[Verse 1]
Whiskey and wimmen
Just about done wrecked my life
Whiskey and wimmen
Just about done wrecked my life
I would have had money today
But they have wrecked my life almost

[Verse 2]
Nightlife, nightlife
Done got the best of me
Nightlife, nightlife, wimmen
Done got the best of me
I had a lot of money one time
But whiskey and wimmen, they tore it down

[Verse 3]
When I had money
I'd been drunk both night and day
I had money, I had money
I'd been drunk both ev'ry night and day
I'd get stoned, I'd get stoned
Ev'ry night I had a different girl, different girl
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

[Verse 4]
If I ever
Get back on my feet again
If I ever
Get back on my feet again
I don't let whiskey and wimmen
Wreck my life no more, yeah-yeah (Yeah-yeah)

Look-a here now

[Verse 5]
At one time, had a whole lot of money one time
Pretty fine car and fine clothes
And a whole lot of money
But nightlife and wimmen and whiskey
Stole that away from me
It took that away from me

[Bridge]
Nightlife, nightlife, nightlife
Ain't no good for me
Look-a here, look-a here, look-a here

[Verse 6]
I'm goin' back home
Pick up my old gal, Sue
I'm goin' back home
And get my old gal, Sue
I'm gonna tell her baby, baby
Treat me the way it used to be
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 7]
Now, I'm broke
I don't have a friend around
All my money gone, gone
I don't have a friend around
Whiskey and wimmen, nightlife wrecked my life
Whiskey, whiskey and night life and wimmen done wrecked my life

[Outro]
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Alright
