Spirit Adrift - Poison Whiskey Lyrics

Spirit Adrift Lyrics

"Poison Whiskey"

Daddy was a Cajun, baby, raised on southern land
And so my kinfolks tell me, was a street-fighting man
Well, they rushed him down to see the doctor
Doctor checked his head
The only thing that was wrong with him was Johnny Walker Red
He drank ol' poison whiskey
And it killed him dead

Happened back in the bayou many years ago
Satan came to take him and he did it real slow
They rushed him down to see the doctor
Doctor just shook his head
Twenty years of rotgut whiskey killed this poor man dead
He drank ol' poison whiskey
And it killed him dead

Killed him dead
Killed him dead

Take a tip from me, people
Brothers, can't you see?
Ain't no future in poison whiskey
They'll rush you down to see the doctor
Doctor's gonna shake his head
The only thing that he's gonna tell ya
"Stop drinking that Red"
Don't drink poison whiskey
Don't you drink it, boy
