Lyrics for One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer

One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer Well my baby she gone, she been gone two night I ain't seen my baby since night before last I wanna get drunk till I'm off of my mind One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer And I sat there, gettin' high, stoned Knocked out, and by the time I looked on the wall, at the old clock again And by that time, it was a quarter to two Last call for alcohol, I said "Hey mister bartender, what do you want?" One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer One bourbon, one scotch...
