Lyrics

(Chorus)
Pay no attention to alice, she's drunk all the time,hooked on that wine
Bunches of it
And it ruined her mind
Pay no attention to alice, they say she's a sot, sane she is not, but she loves
It
And it's all she's got

She made that apple pie from a memory
Made them biscuits from a recollection that she had
She cooked that chicken too long but she don't know that
Oh what the hell, it ain't too bad

(Chorus)

Don't talk about the war, I was a coward
Talk about fishing and all the good times raisin' hell
Empty that one down, we'll get another one
It's getting late, you might as well

Though we ram your car into a ditch, man don't sweat it
I know ben down at the shell station and he'll get it out
Alice, put your ashes in that ashtray, I swear woman
You're gonna burn down the house

Pay no attention to alice, she's drunk all the time..
