Corn Licker Blues Lyrics

Leroy Carr Corn Licker Blues

Now I love my good corn liquor : and I really mean I do
Now I don't care who knows it : and I really mean that
too

Now I've been drinking my good corn liquor : I mean don't
no one get rough
Now I try to treat everybody right : but I mean don't
start no stuff

Give me another half a pint : [and, then] maybe I'll go
home
The reason why I'm getting drunk today : I swear my
baby's gone

Some folks like their alcohol : but give me my corn *I
believe* all the time
Reason why I love it so well : it's so soothing to my
mind

So give me some more corn liquor : if I get drunk [just
please, please just] take me home
I ain't going to bother nobody : just let the good times
baby roll on
