Dave Dudley - Down On Whiskey Row Lyrics

The ol' neon signs are lighted so I'd best get to the bar

After all I've got position I must hope

There's a stool that waits for me after eight that's where I'll be

Sittin' four seats down on Whiskey Row

Oh hey the stools are seldom vacant you might say we've bought

If you miss one night pack up the stools as you go

And I'm not braggin' when I say that I'm sure well on my way

Cause I'm four seats down on Whiskey Row

Four seats down on Whiskey Row and I don't have but six more seats to go

Then I'll be down about as far as I can ever go

Four seats down on Whiskey Row

I've heard tell the people drinkin' till it soon controls their brain

But I guess one look at me proves that ain't so

Why I don't forget a thing like I told ol' what's his name

I'm four seats down on Whiskey Row

I just heard some news that's awful the bartender just told me

Late yesterday they laid away ol' Joe

Well I'm as sorry as can be but look what that does for me

I'm five seats down on Whiskey Row

Five seats down on Whiskey Row now I don't have but five more seats to go

Then I'll be down about as far as I can ever go five seats down on Whiskey Row

And I don't have very far to go five seats down on Whiskey Row
