Allman Brothers Band The Drunken Hearted Boy Lyrics

Drunken Hearted Boy Lyrics

By the allman brothers band

 From the fillmore concerts

 

 Well, yes, people i am a poor, drunken hearted boy.

 Well, yeah, people i am a poor, drunken hearted boy.

 I have a whole ocean of trouble,

 And just a little, half pint of joy.

 

 I drink because i'm worried, i don't drink because i'm dry.

 I know if i keep on drinkin, i'm liable to drink away my life.

 But that's alright.

 

 Baby, bring me another half-a-pint,

 I'm trying to drown these blues, yes i am.

 People if you had my trouble,

 Baby, i know you'd be drinkin too.

 

 Alright.

 Baby, bring me some old grandad's 100 proof.

 Don't play like that man, you'll make me thirsty.

 Oh, lord.

 

 Baby, if i keep on drinkin, i know i can't last too long.

 Woman, if i keep on drinkin, people ya know i can't last too long.

 That's alright, cause when i'm dead and buried,

 Please think about me when you hear this song.
