[Verse 1] I drink white lightnin when the coyotes are out
But them goddamn coyotes won’t leave me alone
Mama said, son you know drinkin' is bad,
But she had to get drunk to have sex with my dad
Glifton he loves to beat his wife
Thank christ she married ole granddad on ice
Mr. Bartender don't be so slow
I got time for another and a six pack to go

[Chorus] If drinkin's a sin, the devil’s my friend,
So give me a shot of what’s left of the gin
If drinkin's a sin, the devil’s my friend,
So give me a shot of what’s left of the gin
Oh give me a shot of what's left of the gin

[Verse 2] I built my house out of beer bottles
But I drank too much bourbon now it's all broken glass
I went to Tucson to see my old lady,
She didn't have a nose so I drove back home
I don't need housing and I don't need women,
I just need a bottle that I can crawl in,
Give me a bourbon or give me a beer,
I’d listen to your story but I cut off my ear

[Chorus] If drinkin's a sin, the devil’s my friend,
So give me a shot of what’s left of the gin
If drinkin's a sin, the devil’s my friend,
So give me a shot of what’s left of the gin
Oh give me a shot of what's left of the gin

[Verse 3] My wife got pregnant with a bottle of schnapps,
The nurse and the doctor all called the cops
When they got there we partied ‘til dawn
I named that bottle Paul, Peter, and John
I had my first drink at the age of three,
I picked a bottle from the whiskey tree
I grabbed it and drank it and got real drunk
I learned how to cry and I learned how to fuck

[Outro chorus] If drinkin's a sin, the devil’s my friend,
So give me a shot of what’s left of the gin
If drinkin's a sin, the devil’s my friend,
So give me a shot of what’s left of the gin
Oh give me a shot of what's left of the gin
Give me a shot of what's left of the gin
