歌曲歌詞
Old jimmy he liked whiskey
Whippin' the old tv
Hank Williams lived by the bottle
Right to the end by gee
I too might die from alcohol but
I won't be the first
Country music singers are
Just born with an endless thirst
Oh
There's one more name I'll mention his name is
Mr Hall
He loves his beer and bourbon
Oh I'd say he's tried 'em all
And some I'm afraid have gone
Onto the other stuff that's worse
I'll do no harm if I bend
My arm to ease my endless thirst
So many of our brothers
In early life did lose
We're either way up in the
Clouds or down deep in the blues
It's a way life we're born to
So for better or for worse
Country music singers are
Just born with an endless thirst
Hey
When I left my home away up north many long years ago
Her songs were played at 4 am and country radio
Oh they called us hicks and
Hillbillies
Sometimes even worse
Twas enough to drive a man to drink
Excuse my endless thirst
So from cowboy songs to
Country songs it's been a long hard grind
We were looked upon with
Such disdain back in the good old times
And as old gp and few like
Me couldn't give Tinkers curse
Oh
We've done it all our way anyway
Lived with our endless thirst
Oh
Here so many of our brothers
In early life did lose
We're either way up in the
Clouds or down deep in the blues
It's a way of life we're born to
So for better or for worse
Country music singers are
Just born with an endless thirst
Those smart bandwagon hoppers
Wouldn't spit on the country scene
When we were in the doldrums
Now they're bursting at the seams
Oh they prance around like
Peacocks
City clubs and halls
But fancy boots and hats don't
Make a fine star after all
So just stick to my old bush songs
The ones that I enjoy
Oh you'll understand my stories
I'm not makin' too much noise
And if I should die from alcohol then
I won't be the first
'Cos country music singers
Born with an endless thirst
Hey
So many of our brothers in early life did lose
We're either way up in the
Clouds or down deep in the blues
It's a way life we're born
So for better or for worse
Country music singers
Just born with an endless thirst
Country music singers
Just born with an endless thirst
Born with an endless thirst
Hey
