Sick, Sober And Sorry    (1951)

Sick, sober and sorry
Broke, disgusted and sad
Sick, sober and sorry
But look at the fun that I had

I met with a gal in a tavern
Oh, what a beautiful dream
We had three or four, then had several more
And that's when I went off my beam

Oh, sick, sober and sorry
Broke, disgusted and sad
Sick, sober and sorry
But look at the fun that I had

The jukebox so loudly was playin'
Each couple havin' a ball
But of all of them gals, their sweethearts and pals
I bet I am sicker than all

Oh, sick, sober and sorry
Broke, disgusted and sad
Sick, sober and sorry
But look at the fun that I had

The clock on the wall said it's later
In fact it was twenty to four
In spite of my pride, they kicked me outside
They locked and they bolted the door

Oh, sick, sober and sorry
Broke, disgusted and sad
Sick, sober and sorry
But look at the fun that I had

Outside I was hailin' a taxi
I got one this time without fail
It sported a star, I never got far
Was only two blocks to the jail

Oh, sick, sober and sorry
Broke, disgusted and sad
Sick, sober and sorry
But look at the fun that I had

Oh, sick, sober and sorry
Broke, disgusted and sad
Sick, sober and sorry
But look at the fun that I had
