I got no money in my pocket, got nobody in my bed,
All the dope I'm smoking I got nothing in my head,
And people they tell me I'm gonna wind up dead,
I'm gonna wind up dead before my day is done.
Well whiskey, whiskey, she's all my delight,
Drinking that whiskey done ruined me quite,
But baby when I'm drinking you know I feel alright,
I'm gonna wind up dead before my day is done.
The way I'm living I got one foot on the ground
You can ask me 'bout that other one I don't know where it's bound.
I've got trouble, trouble, knocking at my door,
I haven't paid them bankers in half a year or more,
But I ain't gonna worry, I've been down that road before,
I'm gonna wind up dead before my day is done.
The way I'm living I got trouble up to my crown,
I'm barely floating but you ain't gonna drag me down.
I'm gonna lay down my worries, gonna rest my weary load,
Take my hand now baby let's get out on that floor,
Oh I'll forget my trouble when I see you jelly roll,
I'm gonna wind up dead before my day is done.
