I am an alcoholic 
 And I love to drink
 A few bottles of
 Tennessee whiskey
 I just love to get drunk
 On Tennessee Whiskey
 Yes I can’t live without the
 Bottles of Tennessee Whiskey
 I also don’t drive a car anymore
 Because you can’t drive a car
 While you are drunk
 Yes my friends hate to see me drunk
 Because I start to curse them
 Also I get very nasty
 Yes I am destroying my liver
 Every day
 Yes I also been evicted
 From many places I lived before
 Because I had run out of money
 Very fast
 Also I was forced to live in the street
 I hated that very much
 I also begged for money on the street
 I never got enough money to buy
 A few bottles of t
 I didn’t like that at all
 Now I was really starving
 Every single day
 I was forced also to beg for money
 I got a few dollars
 It was not even enough
 To buy me a few bottles of Tennessee Whiskey
 It was very sad
 To see me living in the street
 Also I slept every night in the street
 I also begged for money every single day
 I got a few dollars
 It wasn’t enough to buy
 A few bottles of Tennessee Whiskey
 Also there was no bathroom on the street
 I had to pee badly a few times
 On the alley
 At midnight
 I also was lucky
 That the street was quiet
 At that time
 Also there was nobody around
 At that time
 I think everybody was sleeping
 At that time
 Yes it was a long night for me
 I finally went to sleep
 The next day
 The sun was out
 And it was the birds that
 Woke me up very early
 First thing in the morning
 I really enjoyed the birds singing for me
 Soon before I know it
 Summer will end
 And the fall will be here
 I will have no choice
 But to go to a
 Men’s shelter
 There they will feed me
 3 meals a day
 Also I be able to have my showers
 First thing in the morning
 Every single day
 Yes I had continue receiving my
 Tennessee Whiskey
 I must tell you all
 I really enjoyed very much
 Drinking my
 Tennessee Whiskey
 Also they gave some new clothes
 To wear
 At the men’s shelter
 I have been drinking for 5 years now
 I really got used to drink
 I also know that I will only live once
 I will not live forever
 I will die some day
 Now the summer ended
 Very fast
 And we changed the clock back
 One hour
 Now the days are shorter
 Every day I had to sign up
 For a bed
 So I have to sleep at night
 I am not planning to sleep
 In the street during the fall
 Because the hot days have ended
 And now we are having the cold
 Weather
 I am not planning to die
 In the street of frost bite
 That would be very bad
 Also I am still alive
 Because my father keeps me alive
 Every day
 And also I am happy that my father
 Made me many years ago
 And if it wasn’t for my Father
 I would not be here
