Last night I got loaded 
On a bottle of gin, on a bottle of gin 
Last night I got loaded 
On a bottle of gin, on a bottle of gin 
But I feel alright, I feel alright 
I feel alright, I feel alright 

Night before last I got loaded 
On a bottle of whiskey, on a bottle of whiskey 
Night before last I got loaded 
On a bottle of whiskey, on a bottle of whiskey 
But I feel alright, I feel alright 
I feel alright, I feel alright 

Tonight I might get loaded 
On a bottle of wine, on a bottle of wine 
Tonight I might get loaded 
On a bottle of wine, on a bottle of wine 
But I feel alright, I feel alright 
I feel alright, I feel alright
