She said, "Daddy buy me a small bottle of beer
I've got to step around here"
And I don't want to see her no more
She was a beer drinkin' woman
I told her, "Yes, baby doll
I don't wanna see her no more
She would often say, "Excuse me a minute
There's anything else you would like?"
Don't you know, man don't you know?
I say, "I've got to step off baby
Wasn't that a beer drinkin' woman?
She was a beer drinkin' woman
Wasn't that a beer drinkin' woman?
What kind of woman was this?
But I only have one more dime"
If you promise me you'll be back"
She'd tell me, "I want another quart of beer"
I had forty-five dollars when I entered
I don't want to see her no more
And the diploma belongs to you"
Don't you know, man don't you know?
She was a beer drinkin' woman
Well, she was a beer drinkin' woman
Wasn't that a beer drinkin' woman?
When I spent down to my last dime
Don't you know, man don't you know?
She was a beer drinkin' woman
When I left I had one dime
Don't you know, man don't you know?
And every time she'd come back
Don't you know, man don't you know?
I says, "I'm sorry baby
She said, "Daddy I'll keep this table
She says, "Daddy I know you're not through"
You know that was a beer drinkin' woman
Wasn't that a beer drinkin' woman?
I don't want to see her no more
So I can concentrate my mind"
I don't wanna see her no more
