(harmonica, mandolin & guitar intro)
Now, you`s a whiskey-headed woman
Now, an` you stay drunk all the time
Now, you`s a whiskey-headed woman
Now, an` you stay drunk all the time
Now, if you don`t stop drinkin`
Now, I believe you`re goin` to lose yo` mind
Well now, ev`rytime I see
You`s at some whiskey joint
`Yeah!`
Standin` at the back do`
Axkin` for another half-a-pint
`Cause you`s a whiskey-headed woman
Now, an` you stay drunk all the time
Now if you don`t stop drinkin`
`What?`
I believe you`re goin` to go stone blind
Well now, an` I took you out the street, baby
When you didn`t have no place to stay
You ain`t actin`, nothin` but a fool
Doggin` me `round this-a-way
`Cause you`s a whiskey-headed woman
Now, an` you stay drunk all the time
Now, if you don`t stop drinkin`
I believe you goin` lose yo` mind
(harmonica, mandolin & guitar)
Well now, ev`rytime I meet ya, baby
You walkin` up an` down the street
`Yeah!`
Grinin`,` laughin` an` talkin` with the most
Ev`ry man you meet
`Cause you`s a whiskey-headed woman
Now, an` you stay drunk all the time
Now, an` if you don`t stop drinkin`
I believe you`re goin` to lose your mind.
