DRINK
ALL DAY (GOT TO FIND YOUR OWN WAY HOME) (Robert J.
Purvis)
You can drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way
Drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way home
There's a man over there and he's leaning on the bar
By the way the fella's standing, I can tell he won't be goin' far
Nobody cares 'cos they're all the bloody same
It's a shame I have to bother but I gotta keep the place clean
You can drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way
Drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way home
[dobro solo]
Dirty Ella in the corner with a belly full of rum
If you tell her where you're going, you can bet she'll come along
There's a label on her ankle, there's a tally on her shoe
For a pocket full of lollies, maybe you're a sucker too
You can drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way
Drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way home
[dobro solo]
Get a grip of what you're holding, take a look at where you are
You been dancing on the table, but you'll never be a star
Making quite an exhibition, would you do it in your home?
Go and sit down in the corner, leave the quiet man alone
You can drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way
Drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way
Drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way
Drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way home

DRINK
ALL DAY (GOT TO FIND
YOUR OWN WAY HOME) (Robert J. Purvis)
[Live
version]
You can drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way
Drink all day, drink all night
I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way home
There's a man over there and he's leaning on the bar
By the way the fella's standing, I can tell he won't be goin' far
Nobody cares, they're all the bloody same
It's a shame I have to bother, I gotta keep the place clean
You can drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way
Drink all day, drink all night
I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way home
[harmonica solo]
Dirty Ella in the corner with a belly full of rum
If you tell her where you're going, you can bet she'll come along
There's a label on her ankle, there's a tally on her shoe
For a pocket full of lollies, baby you're a sucker too
You can drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way
Drink all day, drink all night
I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way home
[harmonica solo]
Get a grip of what you're holding, take a look at where you are
You been dancing on the table, but you'll never be a star
Making quite an exhibition, would you do it in your home?
Go and sit down in the corner, leave the quiet man alone
You can drink all day, you can drink all night
But I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way
Drink all day, drink all night
I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way (home)
Drink all day, drink all night
I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way (home)
Drink all day, drink all night
I want no trouble and you gotta find your own way home
(Drink all day)
