John Lee Hooker has everything you need for a Friday night. Pour yourself one or three. Turn up the volume. Think about how great it is to be alive.
One bourbon, One Scotch and One beer.

I said hey mister bartender come in here!
I want another drink and I want it now.
My baby she’s gone, she’s been gone tonight,
I aint seen my girl since the night before last.
I wanna get drunk, get her off of my mind.
I wanna a bourbon, one scotch and one beer.
And then I sat there, Drinking,
Gettin high, mellow, knocked out, feelin good.
And after a while, I looked on the wall,
At the old clock.
By that time it was 11:30.
Gettin a little late
I looked down at the bar, at the bartender.
I said, Hey!
What do you want?
One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer.
Well my baby’s gone, she’s been gone tonight.
I ain’t seen my baby since the night before last.
I wanna get drunk, get her off of my mind.
One bourbon, one scotch, and one beer.
And I sat there, I was drinking,
Getting stoned, and “dupe dupe”
Getting a little buzy in the head,
And after a while, I looked on the wall again,
And by that time, lees cold, for alcohol.
Then I looked down at the bar, at the bartender.
I said, Hey Mr. Bartender!
What do you want this time?
One bourbon, one scotch and one beer.
John Lee Hooker (August 22, 1917 — June 21, 2001)
One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer
