PAY NO ATTENTION TO ALICE (SHE'S DRUNK ALL THE TIME) (Tom T. Hall) Tom T. Hall - 1973 I went to see an old army buddy of mine to do some drinkin' And his wife had become an alcoholic and I wrote a song about it Pay no attention to Alice, she's drunk all the time Hooked on that wine, bunches of it, and it ruined her mind Pay no attention to Alice, they say she's a sot, sane she is not But she loves it and it's all she's got She made that apple pie from a memory Made them biscuits from a recollection that she had She cooked that chicken too long, but she don't know that Oh, what the Hell, it ain't too bad Pay no attention to Alice, she's drunk all the time Hooked on that wine, bunches of it, and it ruined her mind Pay no attention to Alice, they say she's a sot, sane she is not But she loves it and it's all she's got Don't talk about the war, I was a coward Talk about fishin' and all the good times raisin' hell Empty that one down, we'll get another It's gettin' late, we might as well But we ran your car into a ditch, man, don't sweat it I know Ben down at the Shell station and he'll get it out Alice, put your ashes in that ashtray I swear, woman, you're gonna burn down the house Pay no attention to Alice, she's drunk all the time (Transcribed by Mel Priddle - March 2018)
