Likes Likker Better Than Me

Oh, I'm in love with a brown-eyed boy
And he's in love with me;
But he's in love with a whiskey jug
Likes likker better than me.

cho: Oh bring me back my brown-eyed boy
     Oh bring him back to me
     Oh bring me back my brown-eyed boy
     Likes likker better than me.

Last night he came to see me,
Last night he smiled on me,
But tonight he smiles on a whiskey jug
Likes likker better than me.

5sometimes I think I'll marry him
For I love him dearer than life,
But, oh,  it's all so hard to bear
As a whiskey drinker's wife.
