Wine, Woman and Loud Happy Songs
[Verse]
Look at me now, ain't I a sight?
Eyes bloody red, face puffy white
Hair tangled up and wrinkled old clothes
I'm a living example of a big overdose of
[Chorus]
Wine, women and loud happy songs
I had all three but none lasted long
The women ran off, I drank all the wine
And the songs died away when I ran out of dimes
[Verse]

It seeps through his mind, leaves him glued to the stool
Women leave you wishing you'd just never been
But the songs make you happy, soon you're searching again for
[Chorus]
Wine, women and loud happy songs
I had all three but none lasted long
The women ran off, I drank all the wine
And the songs died away when I ran out of dimes
