    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
