Too Much Alcohol Lyrics - Irish Tour '74 - Rory Gallagher

Yeah, too much alcohol, yeah 

I went down on 31st Street 

To pick up a jug of alcohol 

Well, I went down on 31st Street 

To pick up a jug of alcohol 

Ahh, told the man to put in some water 

But he wouldn't put in a drop at all 

I was drinking my straight alcy 

And I went walking on down the street 

Well, I was drinking my straight alcy 

And I went walking on down the street 

Yeah, well, my eyes got so heavy 

I nearly fell half asleep 

Well, I like sherry brandy 

My baby sure like gin 

Well, that little girl I got 

Sure put me in the spin I'm in 

Well, I went down on 31st Street 

To pick up a jug of alcohol 

Yeah, I told the man to put in some water 

But he wouldn't put in a drop at all 

Whiskey make me drowsy 

And gin can make you think 

Well, a common cold can kill ya 

But, my baby tell me to drink 

I went down on 31st Street 

To pick up a jug of alcohol 

Yeah, I told the guy to put in some water 

But he wouldn't put in a drop at all 

One hundred per cent alcohol 

Well, let me have some 

Well, I like sherry and brandy 

My baby sure likes gin 

And that little girl I got 

Sure put me in the spin I'm in 

I went down on 31st Street 

To pick up, pick up a jug of alcohol 

Yeah, I told the man to put in some water 

But he won't put in a drop at all 

Ninety one per cent? 

Better make it ninety two 

Ninety three per cent? 

Ninety four? That'll do 

Ninety five, ninety six 

Ninety seven per cent 

Ninety eight? 

Bartender, that's ninety nine 

Make it one hundred per cent 

One hundred per cent 

One hundred per cent 

Wanna try some? 

I wanna try some 

One hundred per cent 

Then I won't feel a thing at all
