lyrics

Oh friends, I have a sad story,
A very sad story to tell;
I married a man for his money,
And he's worse than the devil himself.

For when Mickey comes home I get battered,
He batters me all black and blue;
And if I say a word I get scattered,
From the kitchen right back to the room.

But I'll go and I'll get blue blazin' blind drunk,
Just to give Mickey a warning;
And just for spite I'll stay out all night,
And come rolling home drunk in the morning.

Well of whiskey I ne'er was a lover,
But what can a poor woman do?
I'll go and I'll drown all my sorrows,
But I wish I could drown Mickey too.

So I'll go and I'll get blue blazin' blind drunk,
Just to give Mickey a warning;
And just for spite I'll stay out all night,
And come rolling home drunk in the morning.
