[Chorus]
What good can drinking do, what good can drinking do?
Lord, I drink all night but the next day I still feel blue

[Verse]
There's a glass on the table, they say it's going to ease all my pain [x2]
But I drink it down, and the next day I feel the same

Give me whiskey, give me bourbon, give me gin [x2]
Because it doesn't matter what I'm drinking, Lord
As long as it drowns this sorrow I'm in

I start drinking Friday, I start drinking Friday night [x2]
But then I wake up on Sunday, child, there's nothing that's right

My man he left me, child, he left me here [x2]
Lord, I'm feeling lowdown, just give me another glass of beer

[Chorus]
