Walked in this morning
Feeling half-way like a ghost
Walked in this morning
Feeling half-way like a ghost
My face looked like marble,
My blood burned just like toast
Face looked like marble,
My blood burned just like toast

If I had some sense,
I'd tear that building down
If I had some sense,
I'd tear that building down
No more gin house,
Smiles instead of frowns
No more gin house,
Give you smiles instead of frowns

Came home this morning,
Found her crying by the door
Came home this morning,
Found her crying by the door
Make my promise,
Won't barrel-house no more
You've got my word,
Won't barrel-house no more

Came home this morning,
Looking half-way like a ghost
Came home this morning,
Looking half-way like a ghost
My face looked like marble,
My blood burned just like toast
Face looked like marble,
My blood burned just like toast
