Champagne & Reefer
(Original lyrics by McKinley Morganfield, AKA Muddy Waters)

Bring me champagne when I'm thirsty
Bring me a reefer when I wanna get high
Give me champagne when I'm thirsty
Give me a reefer when I wanna get high
Give me a woman when I get a-loney
And set her right down here by my side

Lord there shouldn't be no the law
When a man wanna smoke a little dope
Hey Mick, lord there shouldn't be no law,
When a man wanna smoke a little dope
Yeah... You're the jammin' learnin' (?)
But it's tied on, don't you know

Every time I get high, yeah, I laid my head down on my baby's breast, ....yeah
Every time I get high I wanna laid down on my baby's breast
Well you know she hugs and kisses me baby, she says Buddy Guy you are the best

I wanna get high this morning, people as sure is my name (how about that)
I wanna get high this morning Mick, just as sure is my name
You can bet my bottom dollar, Keith I ain't gonna use no cocaine

Give me champagne when I'm thirsty
Give me reefer when I wanna get high
Give me champagne when I'm thirsty
Give me reefer when wanna get high
Give me a woman when I get a-loney
Lay down by my baby's side

Give me a woman when I get a-loney
Lay down by my baby's side
