Walken' liquor has done me wrong
I can't sleep night or day
A terrible feeling that comes along
When the kicking begins to get away
You know five at fours and a mixture or two
They call it a sugar blend
If you drink the bootleg shine
You sure have an achin' head
Did you ever wake upon a sunday morn'
With the snakes all around your bed
Well I know you have and I have too
I know I'd rather be dead
I said the preacher comes around and he gives advice
And then you have to stall
But if he gets to the bottle first
You know you never leaving none at all
I tell you brother and I won't lie
What's the matter in this land
They'll drink it wet and vote it dry
And hide it if they can
You know the bid shape morning
And they all get drunk
And call it society
But if they catch you with a pine
Good morning penitentiary
Prohibition has killed more folks
Than sure man ever seen
If they can't get whiskey they'll take to dope
Cocaine and morphine
You know this ol' country sure ain't dry
And dry will never be seen
Prohibition is just a scheme
A fine money makin' machine
Combolic acid and creosole'll ought kill any man
Some get paralyzed and some get well
Some hit the golden land
You know the undertaker has got to live
Beat him if you can
Prohibition say it again
Is a money makin' fine Machine
