Ho-ho hey hey the gamblin' bar room blues I went down to the corner just to meet my gal I found her standin' on the Sidewalk talkin' to my pal I strolled back to the bar room To get another drink of gin But the first thing I knew I was reelin' Rockin' and drunk again I kept drinkin' gin and liquor 'till Way up in the night When my pal walked into the bar Room we had an awful fight I reached down for my razor And then we knocked around But when I pulled my pistol I quickly smoked him down Hey hee hey-ho, ho hoo hoo Hoo oo hoo oo, hoo-ho, hoo hey-ho I went down to see my baby And met her on the way I told her I'd have to leave her I told her I could not stay I started down to the station and Stopped in at the bar There I met a policeman riding in a motor car We both drank lots of liquor That flatfooted cop and I I thought he would never leave me, Lord I thought I'd die My baby came in to join us And then it began to rain Then I had to hurry hurry To catch that midnight train I laid my head in the bar room door I'll never get drunk anymore I've pawned my watch and my golden chain I've pawned my baby's diamond ring Police, police, police You're just as drunk as me I'll grab that old eight-wheeler and make For the deep blue sea
