One Drink Down lyrics
Song information
Artist: Gerry Rafferty Album: Can I Have My Money Back?
Lyrics
To rafferty's bar in my old jaunting car I took myself one friday evening To think on a son so deceiving It's one drink down and another to go
He was married in haste to a woman unchaste Much to the shame of the father His face still half-covered in lather It's one drink down and another to go
It's one drink down and another to go When I pass through the town I must hang my head low It's one drink down and another to go
I'm not the kind to condemn out of hand A woman whose virtue is easy Just as long as she doesn't deceive me It's one drink down and another to go
Imagine a life with an unfaithful wife Might wake up in the morning And find that she's left without warning It's one drink down and another to go
It's one drink down and another to go When I pass through the town I must hang my head low It's one drink down and another to go
