B.B. King - Sloppy Drunk Lyrics

(Jimmy Rogers)

I'd rather be sloppy drunk than anything I know
I'd rather be sloppy drunk than anything I know
Another half a pint, then you'll see me go

My gal done quit me, for somebody else
Oh, my gal done quit me, for somebody else
Now I'm sloppy drunk again, sleeping all by myself

Oh, I love my whiskey, tell the world I do
Oh, I love my whiskey, telling the world I do
And my reason for drinkin', tryin' to get along with you

Oh, I drink while I'm up, drink until I'll fall
I'm gonna drink while I'm up, drink until I'll fall
If you tryin' to stop me drinkin', ain't saying nothing at all

Oh, hey bartender, bring another half a pint
Oh, hey bartender, bring another half a pint
Two or three more drinks, I'm gonna raid this joint

Yes!
I'm sloppy drunk again
I don't care who knows
Yeahow!
