Oh, Lord how happy I am
Oh, Lord how happy I am
I won't feel sad 'till the whiskey's gone
Oh, Lord how happy I am

Oh, when I met my first woman
You know, she was nice and kind as can be
Now she go walking out all over towwn
And she do just what she please
Well, if she thinks I'm sitting here
An' I'm waiting for her to come home
She wanna come a little closer to me right now
And I'll tell you how happy I am

Now, a whole lot of women in this world
They making trouble for all you men;
They're strutting around all over town
And then walking back home again;
Well, if you think that she's got you down
And she's started to count to ten
Just look at her with one eye closed
And sing to her again
