Daddy was a cajun babe
Raised on Southern land
Some'uv of my kin folk tell me
Was a street fightin' man
Well they rush him down to see the doctor
Hey! Doctor check his head
The only thing that was wrong with him was Uncle Johnny's Red
He drank ol' bootleg whiskey
Until it killed him dead
Happened back in the bayou baby
Many year ago.
Satan came to take him
And did it real slow
Well they rushed him down to see the doctor
The Doctor just shook his head
20 years of rot gut whiskey done killed this poor man dead
He drank ol' bootleg whiskey
And it killed him dead
(solo)
Take a tip from me people
Brother, cain't ya see
Ain't no future in no poison whiskey
They goin' to rush you down to see the Doctor
The Doctor goin' to check your head
The only thing he's goin' to tell you baby
Stop drinking Johnny Walker's Red
Don't drink poison whiskey
Don't you drink it boy
