Mungo Jerry - You Better Leave That Whisky Alone Lyrics






Well I don't know what to do about my Mummy
'Cos she's been on the bottle all day long
I don't know what to do about my Mummy
'Cos she's been on the bottle all day long
I called the doctor 'round this morning, said I give you warning
She'd better leave that whisky alone
Well now Daddy went and left us last summer
That's when Mummy took that bottle off the shelf
I found her on the floor, crying out for more
She don't know what to do with herself
I called the doctor 'round this morning, said I give you warning
She'd better leave that whisky alone
Well now Daddy went and left us last summer
That's when Mummy took to drinking all day long
She started on the wheat things, and went on to the sweet things
Now she's drinking something that's real strong
I called the doctor 'round this morning, said I give you warning
She'd better leave that whisky alone
Well, you better leave that whisky alone
Well, she'd better leave that whisky, better leave that whisky
Better leave that whisky alone
I called the doctor 'round this morning, said I give you warning
She'd better leave that whisky alone

  34. B.... F....

    a música de Mungo Jerry tem o poder de me afastar de tristezas e de lembranças ruins

  35. E.... S....

    Mungo seniai mano mėgstamas, dar "in soviet time". Viskas about whiskey yra be galo teisinga. Bet - neįgyvendinama (nors aš Bourbonono ir ragavau, bet man ...). Matyt, įpratimo reikalas. O Munggo nebus pamiršti - bent jau mano nusenusios kartoss.

  36. t.... j....

    Wauww nice musicals

  37. C.... 4....

    i love smoking herb to this song

    good time,old fashioned rock n roll mixed with traditional English folk.mungo jerry were even better live,really got the crowd working.you never left a MJ gig not soaked in sweat

    C.... R....

    Dont i fookin know it!

    C.... R....

    The Genre from Mungo Jerry is called "Skiffle Rock"

  39. s.... ....

    Hmmm, but could it qualify as a song advertising prohibition? And should there be an additional verse, You had better leave crystal meth alone?

    s.... ....

    @***** asides many republicans supported the prohibition act of bygone eras.

    s.... ....

    Have you considered treatment for schizophrenia?

    s.... ....

    +omgwtfbbqmixes oh yeah, let me guess, you've been avoiding rehab centre again? lol

    s.... ....

    +omgwtfbbqmixes FYI my initial comment was actually in response to the comment below, wondering if this is a subtle ad for tennis shoes or whiskey or something. But you can't read or understand German, can you? too drunk or doped maybe?

    s.... ....

    @stanibol How cute the typical schizo with dog pictures on a jewish owned video hosting website is projecting onto me. I'm honored.

  40. R.... W....

    just brilliant awesome music

  41. A.... B....

    Mungo Jerry Songs erinnern mich an meine Jugend....die 70er...geile Zeit

    A.... B....

    Ich habe Mungo Jerry das erstmal bei Oma und Opa als Knirps gehört und einfach angefangen zu tanzen. Es dabei nicht mindestens mit dem Fuß am wackeln ist, muss schon Scheintod sein. Was ich damit sagen ist: Es ist Musik, die einfach zeitlos ist.

  42. B.... F....

    ouça este vídeo e tenha seu astral elevado

  43. S.... ....

    Is this song eine Schleichwerbung fuer Old Tennis SHoes whiskey?Lovely music!

  44. M.... D....

    Geez I wish they were my Pub Band. 

  45. M.... B....

    ray,colin,paul,mike,le premier mungo jerry

    M.... B....

    That's correct and later came John Godfrey for Mike Cole

  46. T.... g....

    I don't object at all. Thank you very much for posting. Colin Earl is always welcome to boogie woogie the house down.

    T.... g....

    Tommy guns $100.00 Reward for the arrest of mungo Jerry's ,mutton Chop's side burn's ,and that song in the summer time when the is fine lay in a cave and listen to Bertha Butt ,smoking a bong of course, what do you all think what the Butt sisters were getting up to ?

  47. d.... s....

    you have no idea how many people love you right now

  48. p.... ....

    I object to the Jack Daniels Whiskey images, Should be Jameson Whiskey.

  49. M.... d....

    Great song!!!, but I dont like those images.

  50. S.... ....

    One of the best and the images are perfect too!

  51. d.... ....

    KEYBOARDS BY THE GREAT COLIN EARL

  52. S.... W....

    Brilliant Mungo Jerry..Time for a revival..!!

  53. g.... ....

    Great kazoo, as usual! HUM-MM-MM!!

  54. J.... H....

    dragged up.......brilliant :)

  55. s.... ....

    Oh, definitely so for generic pop songs which churn out the same old formula for money-making hits, which are just shit. But there is genuinely good music that is being made by brilliant musicians who do it for more than money, especially if you dig a bit deeper. Even in our postmodern world in which all music is recycled (just in response to unoriginality point), there are still new styles like drone and dubstep, which are also innovative if also foul.

    s.... ....

    Иди нахуй

  56. S.... G....

    If you teach your beard how tho play, yes.

  57. T.... ....

    Is it possible to play piano with your hands up???

  58. H.... K....

    There's still good music out there. You just have to look for it way harder than before.

  59. F.... ....

    That's scott, sorry

  60. F.... ....

    ...Scot Joplin

  61. s.... ....

    I hate all this talk of music being shit these days, because there was bad music in every decade (even the 70s!). There are heaps of examples of good bands out there now, just like Mungo Jerry is one for the 70s.

  62. P.... O....

    if only i had my 8-track......

  63. M.... B....

    Can't object to this video... It's Awesome. Just like the Summertime videos! Music to enjoy and dance with. Good for people of all ages! The music is uplifting and the lyrics are fun!

  64. B.... ....

    Lol. 300 characters or whatever the fuck twitters max is isn't close to enough to save the world from stupidity. Clearly you're being sarcastic but you might be on to something here. Seems, to me at least, there can't be many more than 1 person out of 50 that isn't a complete illogical idiot. If we could get those people together (and give a loli to the rest) we could do big things. Anyone know of a, something along the lines of, start the revolution forum? Funding is all I really need.

  65. S.... ....

    i'm 87, and I ain't ANGRY SO F*CK YOU! Also, what you are saying almost makes sense. Do you have a twitter i can follow?

  66. B.... ....

    Im 27 and I much more prefer the comments of substance I grew up on. So much better than the "wow reading that just decreased my IQ by 10 points" comments of today. And you get 7 Thumbs up, Jesus, as if I needed any more reasons to loose complete faith in humanity.

  67. B.... ....

    Yes yes, I read it a year ago and figured "today seems like a good day to comment on a super gay comment I read last year. Hey don't be mad at me, I didn't make you type that lame ass comment. It's one thing when a 12 year old is like "oh music today sucks, I'm 12, but I wish I was born in the 1800's so all I could listen to jug all day" another thing entirely when proceeded by "im 26". Sooooo sick of reading shit along the lines of "music newer than 20xx sucks balls and im so and so age"

  68. S.... ....

    Wow thats so great! Only on youtube will you find a sarcastic retort for something said over a year ago. :)

    S.... ....

    wish I knew what was said 6 years ago . . . lol

  69. B.... ....

    Wow thats so great... looser

  70. C.... C....

    im cursed with his sideburns and loving his music

  71. M.... ....

    What do you want, boogie, 1930's jug band, rock and roll band, or plain old blues band? Man, this Mungo Jerry is all of these, and more and good luck to him ! I loved his stuff in 1969, and I still do! Honestly reckon he didn't get the wide public acclaim he deserved, except of course with In the Summertime! But he is still there, long live Mungo Jerry! Jerry-attrick!

  72. 5.... ....

    leave whiskey,but keep on drinkin' whisky(real scottish,the only whisky ...bourbon is crap and taste like shit!!

  73. K.... O....

    Yo! Brothers! This is a serious song! That whiskey will do you in! I testify that it's having its way with me at this very moment.

    Your prayers are needed.

  74. X.... ....

    Try Chico Marx.

  75. 0.... ....

    KAZZOOS FTW!!

  76. M.... A....

    Best piano player on yootube hands down!!!

  77. n.... ....

    @nadia1234ize I found it.

  78. n.... ....

    elofan567 - Can we have the lyrics of that? Too much wonderful to listen, so I want to know the words.

  79. T.... ....

    This remember me to my childhood/schooltime. Got all the records, singles and LPs too. Store them 'till nowadays. Stoud a bit alone with my music taste at the time in germany.

  80. j.... ....
