Whiskey Before Breakfast

Whiskey Before Breakfast

Early one day the sun wouldn't shine
I was walking down the street not feeling too fine
I saw two old men with a bottle between 'em
And this was the song that I heard them singing

ch
Lord preserve us and protect us,
We've been drinking whiskey 'fore breakfast

Well I stopped by the steps where they was sitting
And I couldn't believe how drunk they were getting
I said "old men, have you been drinking long?"
They said "just long enough to be singing this song"

Lord preserve us and protect us,
We've been drinking whiskey 'fore breakfast

Well they passed me the bottle and I took a little sip
And it felt so good I just couldn't quit
I drank some more and next thing I knew
There were three of us sitting there singing this tune

Lord preserve us and protect us,
We've been drinking whiskey 'fore breakfast

One by one everybody in the town
They heard our ruckus and they all came down
And pretty soon all the streets were ringing
With the sound of the whole town laughing and singing

Hillbilly UFO

(You Got To Pray To The Lord)
When You See Those Flying Saucers:
The Buchanan Brothers [1947]

You’d better pray to the Lord
when you see those flying saucers
It may be the coming of the Judgment Day
It’s a sign there’s no doubt
of the trouble that’s about
So I say my friends you’d better start to pray

They’re a terrifying sight
as they fly on day and night
It’s a warning that we’d better mend our ways
You’d better pray to the Lord
when you see those flying saucers
It may be the coming of the Judgment Day

Many people think the saucers
might be someone’s foolish dream
Or maybe they were sent down here from Mars
If you’ll just stop and think
you’d realize just what it means
They’re more than atom bombs or falling stars
And though the war may be through
there’s unrest and trouble brewin’
And those flying saucers may be just a sign
That if peace doesn’t come
it will be the end of some
So repent today, you’re running out of time

When you see a saucer fly
like a comet through the sky
You should realize the price you’ll have to pay
You’d better pray to the Lord
when you see those flying saucers
It may be the coming of the Judgment Day
