Testo What's The Use Of Getting Sober - Louis Jordan & His Tympany Five
Testo della canzone What's The Use Of Getting Sober (Louis Jordan & His Tympany Five), tratta dall'album Jukebox Hits Volume 1 1942-1947
Boy, you oughta listen to your old pappy
(Yes, pappy)
And stop drinkin' so much
(Well, I ain't doin' so much drinkin', pappy)
Shut up, boy
You drink all day and you drink all night
And son, you know that that ain't right
(Well, pappy, you just give me a chance, I can change)
Shut up, boy
Boy, you lookin' thin as a twig
(I know that)
Look like to your dear old pappy
You're 'bout to blow your wig
(I ain't gonna blow my wig, pappy)
What's the use of gettin' sober
When you're gonna get drunk again?
Old Sam done somethin' fine
When he brought back good whiskey, beer, and wine
I love my whiskey and I love my gin
Every time you see me, I'm in my sin
What's the use of gettin' sober
When you're gonna get drunk again?
I went out last night 'bout half past one
I thought I'd hoop it up a little bit, you know
And have a little fun
I got me a half a pint 'bout half past two
Mmm, mmm, mmm
The way I was feelin', you know what I wanna do
I got me a pint 'bout half past four
Felt so good 'til I went out and got me some more
I got me a quart 'bout half past five
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Boy, that was so nice
I didn't know what I was dead or alive
So what's the use of gettin' sober
When you're gonna get drunk again?
I been thinkin', but I keep drinkin'
