[Verse 1]
       D
Well I gotta get drunk, I sure do dread it
         G                        D
'Cause I know just what I'm gonna do
            D
I start to spend my money, call everybody honey
       E                   A
and I wind up singing the blues
            G                  D
I spend my whole paycheck on some old wreck
                                 A
And brother, I could name you a few
         D                 G
Well, I gotta get drunk, I sure do dread it
         A                        D
'Cause I know just what I'm gonna do

[Verse 2]
    D
I gotta get drunk, I can't stay sober
                 G                     D
'Cause there's a lotta good people in town
            D
Who like to see me holler, and spend my dollar
       E                              A
And I wouldn't think of lettin' them down
G
There's a lot of doctors tell me
   D                       A
I better start slowin' it down
             D                         G
But there's more old drunks than there are old doctors
     A                            D
So I guess I better have another round
