You cant stop me from drinkin
It aint no use to try
You cant stop me from drinkin
It aint no use to try
Because the way you treated me
Hoo-hoo-well-well, Im gonna drink until I die

You cant stop me from runnin around
Also from having my ball
You cant stop me from runnin around
Also from having my ball
Because I am tired, ooo-well-well
Of the other man kicking in my stall

(harmonica & instrumental)

You cant stop me from talkin
To the brown walk-ups down the street
You cant stop from from talkin
To the brown that walk up an down the street
Because you are chasing these peppers
Hoo-well, like a policeman on his beat

You cant stop me from drinkin
Whenev I feel so blue
You cant stop me from drinkin
Whenev I feel so blue
If you ever have been mistreated
Woo-well-well, you would be drinkin, too.
