So won't ya please now Chords Repeat Take me down to the liquor store now I need my poison close at hand Take me down to the liquor store now The devil's dealt me an idle hand I put thirty-two grand on a horse named Believe And the jockey fell off of it's back Now I'm really in deep with the shark this time He'll kill me for cuttin me slack And my wife and my son are all I think about And the pain is just too much to bear So I'm searching for grace in the bottle tonight Ever fearful of what's drawing near So mister please now Take me down to the liquor store now I need my poison close at hand Take me down to the liquor store now The devil's dealt me an idle hand Daddy hit her too hard on the days he was drunk And quite often he'd touch her all wrong So she grew up without a clue in the world Just about what love really was Now you'll find her up town selling pleasure for cash To only the worst kind of men There's a hole in her soul that she fills with a drink And tonight she'll cry out again Won't you please now Take me down to the liquor store now I need my poison close at hand Take me down to the liquor store now The devil's dealt me an idle hand Take me down to the liquor store now I need my poison close at hand Take me down to the liquor store now The devil's dealt me an idle hand
