Wanna tell you a story

About the house rent blues

I come home one Friday

Had to tell the landlady I done lost my job

She said that don't befront me

Long as I get my money next Friday

Now next Friday come I didn't get the rent

And out the door I went

 

So I goes to the landlady

I said, "You let me slide?"

I'll have the rent for you tomorrow

Or the next day I don't know

So said let me slide it on you know people

I notice when I come home in the evenin'

She ain't got nothing nice to say to me

But for five year she was so nice

Lord, she was lovey-dovey

I come home one particular evenin'

The landlady said, "You got the rent money yet?"

I said, "No, can't find no job

Therefore I ain't got no money to pay the rent"

She said "I don't believe you're tryin' to find no job"

Said "I seen you today you was standin' on a corner

Leaning up against a post"

I said "But I'm tired, I been walkin' all day"

She said "That don't befront me

Long as I get my money next Friday"

Now next Friday come I didn't have the rent

And out the door I went

 

So I go down the streets

Down to my good friend's house

I said "Look man, I'm outdoors, you know

Can I stay wicha maybe a couple days?"

He said "Uh, let me go and ask my wife"

He come out of the house

I could see in his face

I knowed it was "no"

He said "I don't know man, ah she kinda funny, an' all"

I said "I know, everybody funny, now you funny too"

 

So I go back home

I tell the landlady I got a job, I'm gonna pay the rent

She said "Yeah?" I said "Aw yeah"

And then she was so nice

Lord, she was lovey-dovey

 

So I go in my room, pack up my things and I go

I slip on out the back door and down the streets I go

She a-hollerin' about the front rent, she be lucky to get any back rent

She ain't gonna get none of it

So I stop in the local bar, you know, people

I go to the bar, I rent my coke, I call the bartender

I said "Look man, come down here", he got down there

Said, "Whatchoo want?"

 

"One bourbon, one scotch, one beer"

Well I ain't seen my baby since I don't know when

I been drinking bourbon whiskey, scotch and gin

Gonna get high man, I'm gonna get loose

Need me a triple shot o' that juice

Gonna get drunk, don't you have no fear

I want one bourbon, one scotch and one beer

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

 

But I'm sittin' there at the bar

I'm gettin' drunk, I'm feelin' mellow

I'm drinkin' bourbon, I'm drinkin' scotch, I'm drinkin' beer

Looked down the bar, here come the bartender

I said "Look man, come down here"

Said "Whatchoo want?"

 

"One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

No, I ain't seen my baby since the night before last

Gotta get a drink man, I'm gonna get gassed

Gonna get high man, I ain't had enough

Need me a triple shot of that stuff

Gonna get drunk, won'tcha listen right here

I want one bourbon, one shot 'n' one beer

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer" (Well all right)

 

(Yeah)

(Scratch my back, baby)

 

(Yeah-ahhh right)

 

Now by this time I'm plenty high

You know when your mouth a-getting dry, you're plenty high

Looked down the bar, I see'da my bartender

I said "Look man, come down here", he got down there

He said "Whatchoo want this time?

I said "Look man, a-what time is it?"

He said "The clock on the wall say three o'clock

Last call for alcohol, so what you need?"

 

"One bourbon, one scotch, one beer"

Lord, I ain't seen my baby since a-nigh on a week

Gotta get drunk man, so I can't even speak

Gonna get high man, listen to me

One drink ain't enough Jack, you better make it three

Gonna get drunk, I'm gonna make it real clear

I want one bourbon, one scotch 'n' one beer

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer"
