Gamblin' Bar Room Blues Lyrics - Penthouse Tapes - Sensational Alex Harvey Band

Ho! He! Ho! He! You're just as drunk as me 

Ho! He! Ho! He! Headin' for the deep blue sea 

I went down to the corner, just for to meet my pal 

I found him talking on the sidewalk, talking to my gal 

I went back to the bar room, to get another drink of gin 

But the first thing I knew I was reeling, rocking drunk again 

Ho! He! Ho! He! You're just as drunk as me 

Ho! He! Ho! He! Headin' for the deep blue sea 

I kept on drinking liquor, to way out in the night 

My pal came into the bar room and we had an awful fight 

I reached down for my razor and then we messed around 

But when I drew my pistol, I quickly smoked him down 

Hey! He! Hey! He! You're just as drunk as me 

Hey! He! Hey! He! Headin' for the deep blue sea 

So I headed on back to the bar room, stopping in at the bar 

And there I met a policeman, sitting in a motor car 

We kept drinking lots of liquor, that flat-footed cop, and I 

I thought he would never leave me. I knew that he had to die 

And I laid my head on the bar room floor 

Never get drunk anymore 

I pawned my watch, my golden chain 

I pawned my baby's diamond ring 

Hey! He! Hey! He! You're just as drunk as me 

Hey! He! Hey! He! Headin' for the deep blue sea 

Hey! He! Hey! He! You're just as drunk as me 

Hey! He! Hey! He! Headin' for the deep blue sea
