作词：John Lee Williamson

作曲：John Lee Williamson

I went down 31st Street now

Just to buy me a drink of alcohol honey

I went down 31st Street now

Just to buy me a drink of alcohol now

I told the old man to cut it half full a-water

But that old man y'know didn't-a put any drop at all in

So I'm drinkin' mine straight alley can

See an I went jus' staggerin' on down the street now

I drinkin' my straight alley can now

So I went jus' staggerin' down the street now

Now but my head got so heavy

My eyes couldn't even give a-peepin' now

Alright Lacey

My baby tells me 'Papa Papa'

She says 'Sonny Boy you know you ain't no good at all now'

My baby tell me 'Papa Papa' now

She says 'Sonny Boy you know you ain't no good at all'

She says 'The reason you don't make me happy

Because you drink too much of this old alcohol now'

I said 'But baby won't you go ridin' now

Oh can I take you ridin' in my car now '

I said 'But baby won't you go ridin' now

Can I take you ridin' wit me in my car now '

She said 'But I'm scared you gonna drink alcohol

Says Sonny Boy then we wouldn't ride very far
