I`ve done a lot of laughing
and a little bit of crying
I`ve been a lot of places
And made a mess of friends
Got wedded to the whisky
Should`ve been a good woman
If I could re-live my days
Changing my ways
I`d not touch` a drop again
By the devil I was tempted
And many jugs I`ve emptied
I felt so rejected
I didn`t wanna go astray
Half my life has been awasted
By the booze I`ve tasted
But the demon I have faced it
And sent him on his way
I hope I`ll be forgiven
For all my bad livin`
I had to make some changes
`Fore he got me in the end
Now I`ve got a pretty woman
She gives me good lovin`
I can `t re-live all my days
in a different way
But I won`t go astray again
By the devil I was tempted
And many jugs I`ve emptied
I felt so rejected
I didn`t wanna go astray
Half my life has been awasted
By the booze I`ve tasted
But the demon I have faced it
And sent him on his way
