Joe Jackson - What's The Use Of Getting Sober (When You're Gonna lyrics

rate me

DV = deep voice, SV = squeaky voice

DV: Boy, you listen to your old Pappy

SV: Yeah, Pappy

DV: And stop drinking so much

SV: I'm-I'm ain't been doing so much drinking, Pappy

DV: Shut up, boy! You drink all day and you drink all night and you know, son, that that ain't right

SV: Oh Pappy, you just give me a chance. I, I can, I . . .

DV: Shut up, boy! Boy, you're lookin' thin as a twig

SV: I know that . . .

DV: Look likes your dear old Pappy - about to blow your wig

SV: Oh I'm gonna blow my wig, Pappy

What's the use of getting sober

When you're gonna get drunk again

Oh Sam done something fine

When he bought that good whiskey, beer and wine

I love my whiskey and I love my gin

Every time you see me I'm in my sin

So what's the use of getting sober

When you're gonna get drunk again

DV:

I went out last night about half past one

Thought I'd whoop it up a little and have some fun

I got me a half pint about half past two

Mmm, mmm, the way I was feeling you know what I wanna do

Got me a pint about half past four

Felt so good, went out and got me some more

Got me a quart about half past five

Boy, that was so nice didn't know if I was dead or alive

So what's the use of getting sober If you're gonna get drunk again

Oh Sam done something fine

When he bought that good whiskey, beer and wine

I love my whiskey and I love my gin

Every time you see me I'm in my sin

So what's the use of getting sober

When you're gonna get drunk again

Well I've been thinking

But I keep drinking

I guess I'm 'bout lose my mind
