Whiskey is my habit, good women is all I crave Whiskey is my habit, good women is all I crave And I don't believe in two things, will carry me to my grave I'm going to Louisiana, where I can drink and have my fun I'm going to Louisiana, where I can drink and have my fun I can't stay here much longer, because my time has just about come When you see me leaving baby, don't you wear no black When you see me leaving baby, don't you wear no black You see your loving daddy, walking down some lonesome railroad track When I was a hustler, I'm in my prime When I was a hustler, I'm in my prime I would drink good whiskey, and gamble all the time
