The Black Label Blues Lyrics

Gamble Rogers The Black Label Blues

A cabaret on the highway
You know the time is ten 'til two
A pretty waitess at my table
A pretty waitress at my table
She say "What can I do for you?"

(that's just what she said now)

Oh, baby, I'm so lonely
And my mind is ill at ease
I need a woman to love me
But if you cannot love me, then
Jack Daniels, if you please

CHORUS:
Whiskey and water-oooooo
Whiskey and water
Here's to fear and pain and sorrow
Jack Daniels, if you please

(look out now!)

Then I called on Miss Maggie Gentry
You know, I fell way down upon my knees
Now, Maggie darlin', I need some lovin'
Oh, deep deep down in my dark ol' soul
Won't you set my mind at ease

Oh, baby, I believe I'm gonna love you
So lay your head down across my knees
(thank you, darlin')
I'm gonna kiss you, and I'll caress you
Mmm, but honey there's just one little thing I'll ask you for first
(What's that, darlin'?)
Jack Daniels, if you please

(she liked it, too!)

CHORUS

With a Black Label on it!

It's so nice to be playin' for a bunch of juicers, again. Goodnight!
