Alone and so lonesome
Bored and so blue
I got the urge to ramble
So I took a drink or two
It tempted me to trifle
Then my true heart went astray
So I wandered in dark water
And just threw my life away
I know that it was wrong
To fool around this way so long
Someone was sawing on the limb
That I was sittin' on
I looked down and I found
I could drown in deep, dark water
So I cried when I realized
I couldn't swim
A fool and his money
Calls for whiskey and for gin
Filled to the gills and falling for
The weaknesses as a man
From one fool to another
Wrong is never right
I ignored advice from mother
And brother look at me tonight
