lyrics

Wet Whistle

remember how i'm broke because i broke the seal,
oh no don't choke you put your words back down your throat,
don't wanna hear about the way you feel,
i'm looking up although my knees are shaking,
oh my can't speak so much for curiosity,
the money's for the taking,
oh my god what have i done,
who is this devil, where does it come from,
i thought that i was having me some fun,
it's happiness is my warm gun,
blew my mind getting ready to fly,
it was a whole lotta woman, bit my lip and closed my eyes,
i wasn't gonna do it why i did i don't know why,
downed a quick one, then another, then another, time to shine,
wet my whistle,
i drowned the little devil,
wet my whistle,
i'm not looking for no trouble,
get inside, i flipped the switch,
double time, and now it's hit or miss,
pretty eyes, but which is which,
looking sleazy and you're feeling queazy,
you can love or hate it, but remember to save it,
wet my whistle,
i drowned the little devil,
wet my whistle,
and i ain't looking for no trouble,
wet my whistle
