Threadsourced Blues Number

Well I woke Up This Mornin'
Got myself a gun
Cause my woman's back out whorin'
While I'm gettin' none.

So I took a swig o'Johnny
And I took a swig o' Jack,
I whipped out my pistol..
and I started walking back...

Back at the shack...
Raised up the gun and fired a shot.
Oh lor', said I'm back at the shack,
And the person I came for's not.

And now I'm so downhearted
And Fido just gone farted
And this funky smell just started
My blues and I will never be parted

So I took a swig of old Jose
Went down so smooth and warm
It tasted just like month-old chilli

and threw it into its case
gonna look for a jam
'cause that's who I am.
