Lyrics for One Bourbon, One Scotch And One Beer

One bourbon, One Scotch, and one beer. One Bourbon, One Scotch, and one beer. Hey mister bartender come in here! I want another drink and I want it now. My baby she's gone, she's been gone tonight, I aint's seen my baby since the night before last. One bourbon, one scotch and one beer. And then I sat there, Gettin high, mellow, knocked out, feelin good. And by that time, I looked on the wall, At the old clock on the wall. By that time it was 10: 30. I looked down at the bar, at the bartender. He said, What do you want Johnny? One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer. Well my baby's gone, she's been gone tonight. I ain't seen my baby since the night before last. I wanna get drunk, get her off of my mind. One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer. And I saty there, getting high, stoned, knocked out, And by that time, I looked on the wall, At the old clock, and by that time, It was a quarter to two: Last call for alcohol. I said, Hey Mr. Bartender What do you want One bourbon, one scotch and one beer.
