Beaucoups Of Blues

Look at me now, ain't i a sight?
eyes bloody red, face puffy white.
hair tangled up and wrinkled old clothes,
i'm a living example of a big overdose of:


wine, women and loud happy songs,
i had all three but none lasted long.
the women ran off, i drank all the wine
and the songs died away when i ran out of dimes.


it's strange how the wine works on a fool,
it seeps through his mind,
leaves him glued to the stool.
women leave you wishing you'd just never been
but the songs makes you happy,
soon you're searching again for:


wine, women and loud happy songs,
i had all three but none lasted long.
the women ran off, i drank all the wine
and the songs died away when i ran out of dimes.
