WHISKEY MAN (Pete Ham)
[from Golders Green CD - recorded 1972 - released U.S. 1999]

[blues harp intro]

Whiskey man, don't lay me on the floor
Whiskey man, don't lay me on the floor
Whiskey man, don't lay me on the floor
You're clever, but you're not together [hiccup]
Whiskey man, don't lay me on the floor

Candle man, don't take away my light
Candle man, don't take away my light
Candle man, I can never fight
You're clever, but you're not together
So don't take away my light, candle man
Ooooo

Monkey man, don't take me down below...
