Dont Start Me On The Liquor Lyrics

    Don't start me on the liquor
    I'll drink it all down straight
    I'll make a toast to love
    But i drink the most
    When i got somebody to hate
    I'm an old man
    I got an old man's pain
    Will the morning
    Will the morning ever come again
    Well, i'm likin' lickin' a lotta liquor
    I'm drivin' down the drink
    I'll take a toast to life
    But i drink the most
    When my devil start to think
    I'm an old man
    I got an old man's pain
    Will the morning
    Will the morning ever come again
    Oh, i could drink, drink, drink
    So i can't think, think, think
    I got a hope or a home
    In this life i'm all alone
    On this long cold lonely night of fright
    Followed by a lonely day
    'til there's nothing left i can say
    Except i didn't know i was sick
    And so i got sicker
    He's a low down lying
    Peckerwood cotton picker
    Don't start me on the liquor
    I got nothing more to say
    I had a little money
    But it all flown away
    And i said oh man
    Oh, ain't that a shame
    Oh, i keep manin', i keep manin'
    Like i got an old man's pain
    Don't
    Don't start
    Don't start me
    Don't start me on
    Don't start me on the
    Don't start me on the liquor.
