Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Whiskey and wimmen almost wrecked my life
Whiskey and wimmen almost wrecked my life
Weren't for whiskey and wimmen, I have money today
[Verse 2]
Nightlife, nightlife, nightlife
Ain't no good, ain't no good, ain't no good for me
I had a good start, but wimmen, whiskey, they tore it down
[Verse 3]
Whiskey and wimmen ain't no good for me
Whiskey and wimmen ain't no good, ain't no good for me
I had a lot of money, and a big, fine car, but I lost everything I had
Ah, but I did
[Verse 4]
I had a lot of money at one time
But nightlife
And whiskey
Wrecked my life
But that's alright
[Verse 5]
If I ever
