Tuning:

Rory played this one with his guitar tuned to open E

Well I went down on 31st street,        pick up a jug of alcohol
E                                       A                       E
Well I went down on 31st street, pick up a jug of alcohol
A                                                               E
I told the man to put in some water, he wouldn't put in a drop at all
	H                               A                               E       H

Now I like cherry Brandy,       my baby sure likes Gin
E                               A                       E
The little girl I got right now put me in the mess I'm in
E                                                       E
Well I went down on 31st street, pick up a jug of alcohol
A                                                       A
I told the man to put in some water, but he wouldn't put in a drop at all
	H                               A                               E       H

Now Whisky makes you drowsy, and Gin can make you think
The common cold could could kill ya', but my woman turned me to drink
I went down on 31st street, pick up a jug of alcohol
I told the man to put in some water, he wouldn't put in a drop at all

Well I'm walking down on main street, who do you think I see?
Well I'm walking down on main street, who do you think I see?
Well he was all dressed up for sunday, but I can tell you he was the chief of the police

He said " hey there silly boy, what's inside the brown paper bag?"
He said " hey there silly boy, what's inside the brown paper bag?"
He put the bottle to his lips, he said "Rory, that's the best Whisky I've ever had!"

I said "hey bartender, won't you hear me when I callÉ"
I said "hey bartender, won't you hear me when I callÉ"
"I went up to Johnny Walker, and I won't complain at all"

I need 91%, 92, 93, 94
95, 96, 97, 98, 99
Hey bartender make it 100 percent, and I don't feel no pain at all
