I won’t be drinkin’, I won’t be drinkin’

I won’t be drinkin’, come Saturday night

I know what your thinkin’, about all my drinkin’

But, I won’t be drinkin’, come Saturday night

 

My Mama done told me, Papa done told me

The Preacher done told me, my drinkin’s a sin

A light there I could see, But the devil was in me

So, I went back and picked up the bottle again

 

My best gal done left me, my best gal done left me

My best gal done left me for drinkin’ my fill

But I know she loves me, I know she still loves me

She said she won’t be back, but I know she will

 

Cause I won’t be drinkin’, I won’t be drinkin’

I won’t be drinkin’, come Saturday night

I know your all thinkin’, that I won’t quit drinkin’

But, I won’t be drinkin’, come Saturday night

 

But, my best friends are buyin’, my friends are all buyin’

My friends are all buyin’ me whiskey tonight

Now it’s got me all to thinkin’, I just might keep drinkin’

But, I won’t be drinkin’ come Saturday night

 

No, I won’t be drinkin’, I won’t be drinkin’

I won’t be drinkin’, come Saturday night

I know you’re all thinkin’, that I won’t quit drinkin’

But, I won’t be drinkin’, come Saturday night

No, I won’t be drinkin’, come Saturday night
