Happy New Year Blues Lyrics

Happy New Year Blues - Gracie Fields

I'm thinking about the year

 

Of 19 and 29

 

I'm thinking about the year

 

Of 19 and 29

 

New year caught me

With marked money man

I was doing just fine

 

I was lying down with my baby

 

We had one small quart of gin

 

I was lying down with my baby

We had one small quart of gin

 

That old doorbell kept ringing

I wouldn't leave nobody come in

 

That old doorbell kept ringing

 

I wouldn't leave nobody come in

 

The whistle was blowing for New Year

Around twelve o'clock at night

 

I lied down on there with my baby

Until the good Lord brought daylight

 

Early one New Year morning

I was walking down by the hill

 

Early one New Year morning

I was walking down by the hill

 

Every man likes his liquor

When he gets it fresh from the still

 

I hate to drink all new year

 

For this whiskey they

Making is too strong

 

I hate to drink all new year

For this whiskey they

Making is too strong

 

Because when I take

Two or three drinks

 

I'll be drunk the whole year long
