I went down on 31st Street,
To pick up a jug of alcohol,
Well, I went down on 31st Street,
To pick up a jug of alcohol.
Told the man to put in some water,
But he wouldn't put in a drop at all.
I was drinking my straight alcy,
And I went walking on down the street,
Well, I was drinking my straight alcy,
And I went walking on down the street.
Well, my eyes got so heavy,
I nearly fell half asleep.
Well, I like sherry brandy,
Well, that little girl I got,
Well, I went down on 31st Street,
To pick up a jug of alcohol.
I told the man to put in some water,
But he wouldn't put in a drop at all.
And gin can make you think,
Well, a common cold can kill ya,
But, my baby tell me to drink,
I went down on 31st Street,
To pick up a jug of alcohol,
I told the guy to put in some water,
But he wouldn't put in a drop at all,
One hundred per cent alcohol,
Well, I like sherry and brandy,
And that little girl I got,
I went down on 31st Street,
To pick up, pick up a jug of alcohol,
I told the man to put in some water,
But he won't put in a drop at all.
Better make it ninety two,
Bartender that's ninety nine,
Make it one hundred per cent,
Then I won't feel a thing at all.
