Song lyrics

Stay away from me 'cause I'm in my sin
Stay away from me 'cause I'm in my sin
If this place gets raided, it's me and my gin

Don't try me nobody, oh, you will never win
Don't try me nobody 'cause you will never win
I'll fight the army, navy just me and my gin

Any bootlegger sure is a pal of mine
Any bootlegger sure is a pal of mine
'Cause a good ol' bottle o' gin will get it all the time

When I'm feeling high, ain't nothing I won't do
When I'm feeling high, ain't nothing I won't do
Get me full of liquor and I'll sure be nice to you

I don't want no cloak and I don't need no bed
I don't want no cloak and I don't need no bed
I don't want no porkchop, just give me gin instead
