One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer Lyrics

George Thorogood & The Destroyers

Want to tell you a story About the house-man blues I come home one Friday Had to tell the landlady I'da lost my job
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
So I goes to the landlady I said you let me slide? I'll have the rent for you in month Next I don't know
So said let me slide it on I notice when I come home in the evening She ain't got nothing nice to say to me But for five year she was so nice
Loh' she was lovy-dovy I come home one particular evening The landlady said You got the rent money yet?
I said no, can't find no job Therefore I ain't got no money To pay the rent She said I don't believe
You're tryin' to find no job Said I seen you today you was standin' on the corner Leaning up against a post I said but I'm tired,
I've been walkin' all day She said that don't concern me Long as I get my money next Friday Now next Friday come I didn't have the rent
And out the door I went So I go down the streets Down to my good friend's house I said look man
I'm outdoors you know Can I stay with you maybe a couple days? He said let me go and ask my wife He come out of the house
I could see it in his face I know that was no He said I don't know man Ah she kinda funny, you know
I said I know, Everybody funny, now you funny too So I go back home I tell the landlady I got a job,
I'm gonna pay the rent She said yeah? I said oh yeah And then she was so nice Loh' she was lovy-dovy
So I go in my room, Pack up my things and I go I slip on out the back door And down the streets I go
She a-howlin' about the front rent, She'll be lucky to get any back rent She ain't gonna get none of it So I stop in the local bar you know people
I go to the bar, I ring my coat, I call the bartender Said look man, come down here, He got down there [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/one-bourbon-one-scotch-one-beer-lyrics-george-thorogood-the-destroyers.html ]
So what you want? One bourbon, one scotch, one beer Well I ain't seem 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, one beer
But I'm sitting now at the bar I'm getting drunk, I'm feelin' mellow I'm drinkin' bourbon, I'm drinkin' scotch,
I'm drinking beer Looked down the bar, Here come the bartender I said look man, come down here
So what you want? One bourbon, one scotch, one beer No I ain't seen my baby since The night before last
Gota get a drink man I'm gonna get gassed Gonna 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

Now by this time I'm plenty high You know when your mouth a getting dry You're plenty high
Looked down the bar I say to my bartender i said look man, Come down here,
He got down there So what you want this time? I said look man, What time is it?
He said the clock on the wall Say three o'clock Last call for alcohol, So what you need?
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer No I ain't' seen my baby since A nigh' and a week Gotta get drunk man
Till I can't even speak Gonna get high man Listen to me One drink ain't enough
Jack you better make it three I want to get drunk I'm gonna make it clear I want one bourbon, One scotch and one beer, One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
