G5                         C5      E5
Fell in the street in a drunken heap;
A5                              G5
There's bright water all around me.
G5                              C5      E5
And the cheap red wine in me drunken brain
A5                               G5
Has left a burning flame in me belly.
D5           
I don't need nobody helping me;
   C5                   G5
I don't need nobody's arm around me.


G5                         C5     E5
If I was a black beetle upside down,
A5                               G5
I could kick all night long and never turn around.
G5                                C5      E5
But I'm flat on my back in the rainbow rain,
A5                                          G5
Still I know, in the morning I'll be on me feet again.
D5 
Just can't get a grip on the ground;
C5                     G5
I'm upside down the right way round.


G5                     C5      E5
I promise thee my shameless lady,
A5                          G5
Who laughs out loud in the sad patient night,
G5               C5      E5
Always to be honestly thee,
A5                          G5
In me waking dreams or me drunken nights,
D5
I don't fear the yawning sunshine morning;
      C5              G5
I'm forward running back again.


G5                         C5      E5
Fell in the street in a drunken heap;
A5                              G5
There's bright water all around me.
G5                              C5      E5
And the cheap red wine in me drunken brain
A5                               G5
Has left a burning flame in me belly.
D5           
I don't need nobody helping me;
   C5                   G5
I don't need nobody's arm around me.
