I've lived in the north, I've lived in the south,
i lived in the city and i traveled in and out,
i make good money but it didn't last long,
my only troubles were wine, women and song,
i've got em, i've had em, lordy lordy lordy i've got em now
now i had a brother done the very same thing, worked all the winter got paid in the spring,
when papa asked him where his money done gone, all he could say was wine women and song
he's got em, he's had em, lordy lordy lordy he's got em now
now there was a city slicker came to our town he had liquor and he passed it around, when i looked my money was gone, all i can say is wine women and song,
i've got em, i've had em, lordy lordy lordy i've get em now
i went slumming just to have some fun, met a little girl and she called me hun, she took all my money now she is gone, she left me singing wine women and song, i've got em, i've had em, lodry lordy lordy i've got em now
now listen young fellow won't you heed my song, keep your money in your pocket and you can't go wrong don't go slumming cus it won't take long if you go mixing the wine women and song,
you'll get em, you've got em, lordy lordy lordy you've got em now
now old al dexter did the very same thing, he worked all the winter got paid in the spring, and when his papa ask him where his money done gone, all he could say was wine women and song
he's got em, he's had em, lordy lordy lordy you can have em now
