One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer

George Thorogood

Wanna tell you a story
About the house-man blues
I come home one Friday
Had to tell the landlady I'd-a lost my job

She said that don't confront me
Long as I get my money next Friday
Now next Friday come I didn't get the rent
And out the door I went

So I goes to the landlady
I said, "You let me slide?"
I'll have the rent for you tomorrow
The next day I don't know

So said let me slide it on you know people
I notice when I come home in the evening
She ain't got nothing nice to say to me
But for five year she was so nice

Loh' she was lovy-dovy
I come home one particular evening
The landlady said, "You got the rent money yet?"
I said, "No, can't find no job"

Therefore I ain't got no money to pay the rent
She said "I don't believe you're tryin' to find no job"
Said "I seen you today you was standin' on a corner
Leaning up against a post"

I said "But I'm tired, I've been walkin' all day"
She said: "That don't confront me
Long as I get my money next Friday"
Now next Friday come I didn't have the rent
And out the door I went

So I go down the streets
Down to my good friend's house
I said "Look man I'm outdoors you know
Can I stay with you maybe a couple days?"
He said "Uh, Let me go and ask my wife"
He come out of the house
I could see in his face, I know that was no

He said "I don't know man
Ah, she kinda funny, you know"
I said "I know, everybody funny
Now you funny too", so I go back home
I tell the landlady I got a job
I'm gonna pay the rent
She said "Yeah?" I said "Oh yeah"
And then she was so nice

Loh' she was lovy-dovy
So I go in my room
Pack up my things and I go
I slip on out the back door
And down the streets I go
She a-hollerin' about the front rent
She'll be lucky to get anyback rent
She ain't gonna get none of it

So I stop in the local bar you know people
I go to the bar, I ring my coat
I call the bartender
Said "Look man, come down here"
He got down there so what you want?

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
Well I ain't seen my baby since I don't know when
I've been drinking bourbon, whiskey, scotch and gin
Gonna get high man I'm gonna get loose

Need me a triple shot of that juice
Gonna get drunk don't you have no fear
I want one bourbon, one scotch and one beer
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
But I'm sitting now at the bar

I'm getting drunk, I'm feelin' mellow
I'm drinkin' bourbon, I'm drinkin' scotch, I'm drinkin' beer
Looked down the bar, here come the bartender
I said: "Look man, come down here", so what you want?

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
No I ain't seen my baby since the night before last
Gotta get a drink man I'm gonna get gassed
Gonna get high man I ain't had enough

Need me a triple shot of that stuff
Gonna get drunk won't you listen right here
I want one bourbon, one shot and one beer
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer

Now by this time I'm plenty high
You know when your mouth a-getting dry you're plenty high
Looked down the bar I say to my bartender
I said "Look man, come down here", he got down there

So what you want this time?
I said "Look man, a-what time is it?"
He said "The clock on the wall say three o'clock
Last call for alcohol, so what you need?"

One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
No I ain't seen my baby since a nigh' and a week
Gotta get drunk man till I can't even speak
Gonna get high man listen to me

One drink ain't enough Jack you better make it three
I wanna get drunk I'm gonna make it real clear
I want one bourbon, one scotch and one beer
One bourbon, one scotch, one beer
