Take me back baby, raise me to your hand
Some day honey I`ll become a lucky man
I keep on drinkin`, tryin` to drive my blues away
Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday
You can call me crazy, but I ain`t nobody`s fool
While I stand your doggin` I kick just like a mule
And I keep on drinkin`, tryin` to drive my blues away
Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday
Woman I love she done gone back home
Every time she leave me she make my blood run warm
And I keep on drinkin`, tryin` to drive my blues away
Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday
I wouldn`t drink no whiskey but I cannot help myself
Wouldn`t be lovin` you mama if I could love someone else
So I keep on drinkin`, tryin` to drive my blues away
Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday
Blues ain`t nothin` but a good man feelin` bad
Thinkin` about the good times that he once has had
And I keep on drinkin`, tryin` to drive my blues away
Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday
I ain`t gonna tell nobody that I ain`t gonna drink no more
I don`t feel welcome no place I go
So I keep on drinkin`, tryin` to drive my blues away
Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday
PART II
Too bad mama that we can`t get along
When I think I`m doin` right I`m doin` wrong
I keep on drinkin`, tryin` to drive my blues away
Well that sun gonna shine in my backdoor someday
You talkin` about your troubles but I`ll bet you I`ve had mine
That`s why you see me drinkin` all the time
I keep on drinkin`, tryin` to drive my blues away
Well that sun
