LOVESICK BOOZE
(Ervin Mills / Cliff Friend / Sheb Wooley) 

Ben Colder - 1967



 
I got a feelin' called the booze
Yeah, I'm feelin' pretty high
Yeah, I'm loose as a goose
When a cutie walks by
Hey bartender, pour another round 
I'll find a woman that wants to be found
She'll do me, she'll woo me
She'll give me that kind of lovin'
Lord, I wanna hear her when she calls me Ben Colder
That's a beautiful name 
I've been thinkin' it over 
And it's a doggone shame
Here I am about half lit 
And the drunker I sit here 
The longer I get
And I'm lonesome 
Give me another little touch of that booze

I'm gonna fall in love with some beautiful girl 
I tell you for sure
All I need is a lovin' machine 
Who owns her own liquor store
Hey Bartender, you see that little cutie that just walked in
I want you to introduce me at her
Ben Colder, that's who
Man you shouldn't drink anymore, you gettin' mean

I got a feelin' called the booze
Yeah, she's a cutie alright
Hey baby, sit here beside me
I'm gonna do you right
You're the cutest thing I ever saw in my life 
Son-of-a-gun, it's my wife
Oh-oh-oh, I'll get a lovesick bruise
Hey bartender, give us tea martoonies
Alright sweetie, I'm goin', don't shove
