about

Written about the crew that worked on the coast guard ship the Theitis in March-April of 2003... I had picked up work there for a month and it was quite an experience working with those guys.. recorded later in the summer of 2003 with Kevin McCahill at a place on William Street in Key West, Florida..of course we had to go buy a bottle of whiskey to record this...

lyrics

Work Whiskey Wine and Women i'm all fucked up and my head is spinning
I'm losing ground the bossman's winning
seems these days are never ending
and though I try to break free, something inside won't let me
so once again...
all I think about is work whiskey wine and women...

82 hours i worked this week, man it's a wonder I can even speak
my mind's wrapped up in the bottle waiting
whiskey soothes the burn of the hot sun drinking me I know
i'll get my rest, and get on back to the woman I love best, until then...
all i'll think about is work whiskey wine and women

I got me a wife in Ohio and I got another wife in Delaware
lord I know this is trouble coming for me, see I can't get free
it's alimony, alimony, god-damn woman now she thinks she owns me
think again...all I care about is work whiskey wine and women

And oh lord, are you trying to break me?
'cause the way I feel right now..you could come and take me

Lord have mercy on my soul
and won't ya keep my heart from the lonesome cold
if ya got a spare hand, why don't you lend it to me?
And i'll be thankful, i'll repent
but I ain't gonna lie honey i'll admit I live in sin...
'cause all I think about is work whiskey wine and women...
