POUR ME ANOTHER DRINK SAM BLUES

LYRICS BY RALPH PRESSEL

© 1989 RALPH PRESSEL

Stanza #1:

Pour me another drink, Sam.

Can't you see that I am

Here alone?  On my own?

Stanza #2:

No, there's nothin' to tell.

Yes, I'm going through hell

All alone.  Gettin' stone'.

Stanza #3:

Guess I can’t hold on to

Anything of value

I’m sure to lose.  Oh what’s the use?

Could be . . . . (Chorus)

Chorus:

I got the Pour Me Another Drink Sam —

The ol’ Pour Me Another Drink Sam Blues.

Stanza #4:

Funny, I can’t remember

Lovin’ without November’s

Freeze.  Fallen leaves.

Stanza #5:

What a starry-eyed lover I was.

Played such a fool.  I know ‘cause

He’s (She’s) gone.  Not even, “So long.”

Stanza #6:

I got to lean on you to

Tell me wha’ ‘t is you’d do

In my shoes.  Oh, don’t refuse.

Maybe . . . (Chorus)

Stanza #7:

‘s closin’ time already?

Sam, thanks for helpin’ steady

Me.  Jus’ fin’ my key.

Stanza #8:

‘s kind of you.  But no,  see —

You’re better off without me.

So ashame’.  Only me to blame.

Stanza #9:

Jus’ between us.  O.K.?

Feelin’ crazy.  Wha’ ‘s ‘at you say?

Soundin’ real confuse’?  What’s talkin’ ‘s booze?

Must be —  (Chorus)
