Down On Whiskey Row Lyrics - Dave Dudley

The ol' neon signs are lighted so I'd best get to the bar 

After all I've got position I must hope 

There's a stool that waits for me after eight that's where I'll be 

Sittin' four seats down on Whiskey Row 

Oh hey the stools are seldom vacant you might say we've bought 

If you miss one night pack up the stools as you go 

And I'm not braggin' when I say that I'm sure well on my way 

Cause I'm four seats down on Whiskey Row 

Four seats down on Whiskey Row and I don't have but six more seats to go 

Then I'll be down about as far as I can ever go 

Four seats down on Whiskey Row 

I've heard tell the people drinkin' till it soon controls their brain 

But I guess one look at me proves that ain't so 

Why I don't forget a thing like I told ol' what's his name 

I'm four seats down on Whiskey Row 

I just heard some news that's awful the bartender just told me 

Late yesterday they laid away ol' Joe 

Well I'm as sorry as can be but look what that does for me 

I'm five seats down on Whiskey Row 

Five seats down on Whiskey Row now I don't have but five more seats to go 

Then I'll be down about as far as I can ever go five seats down on Whiskey Row 

And I don't have very far to go five seats down on Whiskey Row
