why do i go out everynight and play?
i got the bloodshot blues
why do i go out everynight and play?
my old lady keep on telling me
"boy, when you gonna change your evil ways?"

everynight, everynight
i go out with my good timing friends
everynight, everynight
i go out with my good timing friends
laughing and a joking
i swear it's the living end

drinking gin and whiskey
chasing girls with pretty names
drinking gin and whiskey
chasing girls with pretty names
i like the smell of smoke and perfume
i swear i ain't got no shame

i got the bloodshot blues
why do i go out everynight and play?
