Classic Country Lyrics: "Chug-A-Lug" von Roger Miller

Alkohol ist in Countrysongs immer wieder ein Thema,
doch die ersten Teenage-Erfahrungen damit in einem
Song zu verarbeiten, der auch noch genügend Humor
in sich trägt, da brauchte es schon ein Ausnahmetalent
wie Roger Miller. "Chug-A-Lug" war denn auch einer
seiner zahlreichen Hits in seinem erfolgreichsten Jahr
1965.

Chug-a-lug chug a lug 
Make ya wanna holla hidy hoe, 
Burns your tummy don't you know
Chug-a-lug chug-a-lug

Grape wine in a mason jar 
Homemade and brought to school 
By a friend of mine after class 
Me and him and this other fool 
Decided that we'll drink up whats left 
chug-a-lug so I helped myself 
first time for everything 
umm my ears still ring

Chug-a-lug Chug-a-lug 
Make u wanna holla hidy hoe, 
Burns your tummy don't you know
Chug-a-lug chug-a-lug 

4 H and an FFA
On a field trip to the farm
Me and friend sneek off behind
This big old barn
Where we uncovered a covered up 
Moonshine still
And we thought we'd drink our fill
And I swallowed it with a smile
ohh I run ten mile

Chug-a-lug chug a lug 
Make u wanna holla hidy hoe, 
Burns your tummy don't you know
Chug-a-lug chug-a-lug 

Jukebox and sawdust floor
Somthin' like i've never seen 
Heck I'm just going on 15,
But with the help of my fanaglein' uncle 
I get snuk in for my first taste of sin 
I said let me have a big old sip 
bbbb i done a double back flip

Chug-a-lug chug a lug 
Make u wanna holla hidy hoe,
Burns your tummy don't you know
Chug-a-lug chug-a-lug chig a chagle uh
