One Drink Down

Lyrics
To Rafferty's Bar in my old jaunting car I took myself one Friday evening To think on a son so deceiving It's one drink down and another to go. He was married in haste to a woman unchaste Much to the shame of the father His face still half-covered in lather It's one drink down and another to go. It's one drink down and another to go When I pass through the town I must hang my head low It's one drink down and another to go. I'm not the kind to condemn out of hand A woman whose virtue is easy Just as long as she doesn't deceive me It's one drink down and another to go. Imagine a life with an unfaithful wife Might wake up in the morning And find that she's left without warning It's one drink down and another to go. It's one drink down and another to go When I pass through the town I must hang my head low It's one drink down and another to go. Written By: Gerry Rafferty and John Patrick Byrne Acoustic Guitars: Gerry Rafferty / Roger Brown Bass: Gary Taylor Drums: Henry Spinetti Fiddle: John Van Derrick Harpsichord: Tom Parker Lead Vocals: Gerry Rafferty Backing Vocals: Gerry Rafferty / Joe Egan
