Jimmie Davis — Goodbye Old Booze

[Verse 1] Goodbye old booze Goodbye old booze Forever more Forever more My drinking days My drinking days Are surely o'er Are surely o'er I've had a good time I've had a good time And I must not grieve And I must not grieve For drinking booze For drinking booze Is killing me Is killing me [Verse 2] Go dig my grave Go dig my grave Both wide and deep Both wide and deep Place a bottle of corn Place a bottle of corn At my head and feet At my head and feet Place a pair of dice Place a pair of dice In my right hand In my right hand I'll shoot my way I'll shoot my way To the promised land To the promised land [Verse 3] And if I go And if I go To my home below To my home below I'll shovel coal I'll shovel coal Instead of snow Instead of snow And if I go And if I go To my home above To my home above I know I'll meet I know I'll meet The baby I love The baby I love [Verse 4] How dry I am How dry I am How dry I am How dry I am Nobody seems Nobody seems To care very much To care very much Upon my head Upon my head My coat and shoes My coat and shoes Pour one more drink Pour one more drink Of good old booze Of good old booze
