[Verse 1]

I don't know what my baby's gonna say when I get home

I know I should have gone, but the booze keeps a-flowin' on

But by now, feel like standing on head

Let the booze flow out of my ears

But I really, really, really should go

'Cause I know that my baby's back home

[Verse 2]

My sweet woman of the dreams, stop a-teasin' me with your smile

I gotta keep sober, keep my mind straight for a while

I once did climb a mountain side

Did swim the silver-red seas

And once did caught the moonbeams

But now I have flipped to my whim

[Verse 3]

My dear old Uncle Adam had it right, baby, from the start

He never did get married, nor did he break any poor girl's heart

All his life worked his fingers to the bones

Then he jumped and he came home stoned

But you couldn't really call it his home

And I wish that I could be like him
