I Don't Want No Whiskey

I don't want no whiskey
And I don't want no dope
I don’t want no whiskey
And I don’t want no dope
Whiskey took my freedom
And the dope took away my hope

Took me to the bottom
And it was long and low
Took me to the bottom
And it was long and low
Took me so far down
I couldn’t tell you which way to go

So if you see me comin'
You know I won't be high
If you see me comin’
I won’t be high
Whiskey almost killed me
Law, I almost died

I don’t want no whiskey
And I don’t want no dope
I don’t want no whiskey
And I don’t want no dope
The whiskey took my freedom
The dope took my hope
