0:27Well my daddy never drank no whiskey
0:31He never wet his liver with gin
0:34My momma said she loved nobody else
0:37But she really loved the drinking man
0:42Respectable though my daddy was
0:45Until he heard of mama's sin
0:48He drank every drop of liquor in this place
0:52Never saw my daddy again
0:55Because everybody loves a drinking man
1:03Everybody loves a drinking man
1:09Well my uncle was a real good talker
1:12He'd talk the beak off a myna bird
1:16Until someone dropped a glass of whiskey in his hand
1:20Never said another word
1:23Because everybody loves a drinking man
1:30Everybody loves a drinking man
2:20So understand that people will judge you
2:23On your good and not your words
2:26So if you're looking for a favor or two
2:30You may likely die of thirst
2:33Because everybody loves a drinking man
2:41Everybody loves a drinking man
2:48Everybody loves a drinking man
2:54Everybody loves a drinking man
Well my daddy never drank no whiskey He never wet his liver with gin My momma said she loved nobody else But she really loved the drinking man Respectable though my daddy was Until he heard of mama's sin He drank every drop of liquor in this place Never saw my daddy again Because everybody loves a drinking man Everybody loves a drinking man Well my uncle was a real good talker He'd talk the beak off a myna bird Until someone dropped a glass of whiskey in his hand Never said another word Because everybody loves a drinking man Everybody loves a drinking man So understand that people will judge you On your good and not your words So if you're looking for a favor or two You may likely die of thirst Because everybody loves a drinking man Everybody loves a drinking man Everybody loves a drinking man Everybody loves a drinking man
