- David Frizzell performing I'm Gonna Hire A Wino
Lyrics:
I came crawling home last night, like many nights before:
I finally made it to my feet as she opened up the door.
And she said, "You're not gonna do this anymore."
She said: "I'm gonna' hire a wino to decorate our home,
"So you'll feel more at ease here, and you won't have to roam.
"We'll take out the dining room table, and put a bar along that wall.
"And a neon sign, to point the way, to our bathroom down the hall."
She said: "Just bring your Friday paycheck, and I'll cash them all right here.
"And I'll keep on tap - for all your friends, their favorite kinds of beer.
"And for you, I'll always keep in stock, those soft aluminum cans.
"And when you're feeling macho, you can crush them like a man."
She said: "We'll rip out all the carpet, and put sawdust on the floor.
"Serve hard boiled eggs and pretzels, and I won't cook no more.
"There'll be Monday night football, on T.V. above the bar.
"And a pay phone in the hallway, when your friends can't find their car."
She said: "I'm gonna' hire a wino to decorate our home,
"So you'll feel more at ease here, and you won't have to roam.
"We'll take out the dining room table, and put a bar along that wall.
"And a neon sign, to point the way, to our bathroom down the hall."
She said: "You'll get friendly service, and for added atmosphere.
"I'll slip on something sexy, and I'll cut it clear to here.
"Then you can slap my bottom, every time you tell a joke.
"Just as long as you keep tipping, well, I'll laugh until you're broke."
She said: "Instead of family quarrels, we'll have a bar-room brawl,
"When the Ham's bear say's its closing time, you won't have far to crawl.
"And when you run out of money, you'll have me to thank.
"You can sleep it off next morning, when I'm putting it in the bank."
She said: "I'm gonna' hire a wino, to decorate our home,
"So you can feel more at ease here, and you won't have to roam.
"When you and your friends get off from work, and have a powerful thirst.
"There won't be any reason, why you can't stop off here first."
She said: "I'm gonna' hire a wino to decorate our home,
"So you'll feel more at ease here, and you won't have to roam.
"We'll take out the dining room table, and put a bar along that wall.
"And a neon sign, to point the way, to our bathroom down the hall."

They don't know how love the old country
If you have heard him sing you already know how good he is. But, if you haven't heard from him, listen to Mo Pitney singing Mel Street's "Borrowed Angel."
We all grew up in the bar at home geezus

*You don't hear this music on the radio anymore so I came here to get my younger years back I'm 66 yrs old thanks to everyone that is listening to these oldies but goodies ✨😊*
Yept I am 67 and I still love it.
Love this 💯💯 Classic Country GOLD💯
I'm 34 an listening thanks to my papaw and my little granny helping my daddy to raising me.
Brings me so many many cherished memories and I'd give anything to have them back with me to make many more.
Sometimes feel I'm losing my mind worth them not here.
When this song was popular, my parents owned a bar in a small farming town, and if I heard this song once a day, it was a VERY slow business day. I remember being willing to pay to NEVER hear this song again before I was 20; now, at the age of 58, all I have to do is think of the title, and some of the best memories all come flooding back in an instant. Let it be a lesson to all that you never know what your favorite memories will be while you’re busy making them.
Thanks for this comment, you make a good point.
I first heard this song in Boston, on an Album Oriented Rock station. Not their normal cup of tea, but the morning drive dj thought the song was priceless wanted to share it.
It reminded me of the small farming town that I was from.
I remember David Allen Coe You never call me by my name, whenever that song was played at our bar everybody would sing it loud and proud!!! Your absolutely right, the memories I have are so great to look back on!!! Many years of being a biker and just riding drinking and having fun!!! Wish I could go back and do it all over again!!!
What you mean back when it was popular ur here jamming it so it’s still possible
@@kansas3332 It’s not on the charts, is it? In fact, I don’t hear it on radio any longer, commercial or Sirius. The point of my comment is that 40 years puts a different perspective on how you think about your life.
@@LTJC70 I wouldn’t want to go back necessarily; where I was once young and impressionable, now I’m older and much less malleable. In fact, the older me would hurt himself laughing at the younger me!
Not sure if anyone will see this 15 years later but this was one of my grandfathers favorite songs. He always said he wanted this played at his funeral and well that time finally came. I’ve been listening to a lot of those songs lately and this is one that will always get me
The first time my dad heard this song he got the biggest kick out of it. I still love it today.
Ts all good kiddo because its only the memories that we have of our loved ones gone from this earth. Cherish them.
Memories❤
2024 still listening we are dinosaurs
Amen brother
Being a dinosaur is just fine with me💯
im 33 and found out im a old soul and i like this classic
Dinosaurs are 😎
No you are just fishing for likes
Why don't they make music like this anymore. Love all the old country and old rock. They are the best to listen to
There is good shit still coming out its just much harder to wade thru all the shit!
Because no one knows how to have anymore.
Have fun oops Budweiser speaking*
Cuz you can't go out drinking anymore it's frowned upon
'Cause the 21st century sucks.
Every time i heard this song my dad sang along with it!he has passed away now but it still feels like hes here when i hear this song!Love you always dad ! Your gone but not forgotten!
My dad did the same. There singing this now ❤
This was my life in the old days thank God it ain't no more. My wife will verify that I couldn't handle this again, so I'm glad God give me a chance to change my life and quit all the stupid things I used to do. So anybody that live this kind of life I hope they have a chance to change thank you God
Really??you are going to come into the comments section of this classic tune and pray for the rest of us to clean up? Jesus, some folks have no tact. Have a drink. U were prob less of an ass hole.
I wasn't a wino-I was more beer and liquor man. I was a functioning alcoholic. I quit Christmas Eve 1981 because of a sacred promise to a 6 year old little girl I latter adopted. I married her mother January 28, 1982 and we were together until my wife passed away September 18, 2017 from a stroke. I am happy to say I have never relapsed even when my wife died.
This song always reminded me of my cousin and his wife he would get so drunk he beat his kids and wife and do some drunk driving went to jail for it and nearly lost his job they divorced and he died of a heart attack the kids are grown up and his wife married another man
My husband who died in 2015 we used to go out n listen to these awesome songs n so 56 years later they are still tops in my book!!!!!
Amén don't for much new ctry.
Probably one of the best country songs ever written!
These were the most clever lyrics in a Country song back in the day. Probably still are. Loved this song when it hit the charts.
This song is a classic and pure country music
This song was a hit when me and my wife was dating. Still got her 39 years later
That’s wonderful. There are not a lot of of marriages that last this long anymore. Keep it up
More power to you
she must of changed the home to a bar
This was my wife and my wedding song 21 years go.....still going strong
My wife and I song as well 😂😂 awesome
Congratulations!!! Hope your next 21 are filled with love, respect and loads of happiness. Fun silly song. 🥰
Congratulations!🍾 🎉
Wonderful. Now. That. Awesome. Great for. Yaww
My wife wouldn't let me play our song, Good Hearted Woman.
Instead of a family quarrel, we'll have a bar room brawl. 😂😂😂 . I loved this sing since I was like 6.
I told my family. Instead of a family quarrel. We'll have a family MOSHPIT
@@richardbailey7472 >>> Rock on , duuuuuuude.
Same. This and Jose Cuervo by Shelly West. lol
Loved this song then and still love it memories of fun times in my drinking days lol
Same here!
I love this song.
David frizzell one of my favorite country singers but hes never really got the respect he deserves.
Music like this simply couldn’t be produced anymore because the music industry and society as a whole has gone downhill too much. All that can be done now is to just appreciate the good memories.
I love David frizzell and his good old country music I hope he's still making good old music
Music has lost a lot of its soul
I'm 58 this year and I remember this song and I couldn't resist listening to it again. 🤣
Reminds me of my mom. She use to listen to all of these songs when I was a kid. Now I love them 25-30 years later
My mom used to love this song and another favorite of hers was Jose Quervo you are a friend of mine
My dad had this on cassette. He told me he bought it just for this song. 😅
I always listen to all the older song. Back during the 60s and 70s.
I am so happy to hear this song, it was one of my mother's favorites and now mine too.
Dad used to play this on grandma's old record player. Along with "Old John's been Shucking my corn", "Elvira", "Nag" and "Lord it's hard to be humble". Great music
I drive an 1980 chevy citation and i play this music. And i crank it. I just get looked at. Some yeehaaa. A lot of dirty looks. I love this older music. I can understand thos typ of music.
I love this song hell yell
This is the last song I heard my dad sing and he loved his music but I think of him each and every time I hear this song, and this is for you Aunt Opal I love you!
Cannot count how many times I have played this just love love it.
Do you know how long the bank and the I have
@@lesliegailey4239 huh????? I do not understand what you are saying. Please explain
Wow. Thought I was losing it. Lol. I love it also
One of my favourite country western songs.
this is true country music, grew up with this song loved it back then and still love it to this day..
John Deno, I remember my dad singing this when I was little. I miss those days.

Good 'Ol Lefty!! 🤗
this song never gets old
I Ve been listening to the feddy song Wino sense I was 2yrs. In my grandma bar.Houston Tx
My uncle Dewayne wrote this and also Friends in Low Places, among others, but this was my favorite. He. My mom, and uncle Ron made records back in the late 50s, early 60s. They were The Blackwells. All have passed now. Mom and Dewayne in the last few years. Ron decsdes ago in an accident. Still fun to listen too.
A friend of mine & his wife, did just what The song said, you opened the two stall garage & it, was like walkin into the cut away of a movie set, lol it was modeled after the Gilly's Bar in Pasadena Texas.. Juke Box pool table Small lighted Dance floor like Saturday Night Feaver, across the bk wall 16 ft. Bar it had it All.. & they stayed married & Happy till age 62 & Liver Failure.. True Story..
I still know this lil gem word for word! It's been a few years but this song was that powerful!
I got to do lights and sound for him in the mid 80´s along with shelly west at the carousel lounge in pensacola ,Fl I was not a fan back then at 27 years old but I was wrong,I was a heavy metal head and did not appreciate country for the talent that is was ,I sure miss now
This song use play on all radio stations back then still remember this song, still is classic hit song. I was radio listener way back 1970s still enjoy classic hits songs. Pure country music sound!!!!! Two thumbs up. I grow up Country Music was younger age still am today.
funny how these old songs take you back 3 decay and still like it was yesterday
Did you just say three decades?? Come on girl lets try at least four, that will be close enough for me, LOL
Hey
My MOMMA SANG THIS ALL THE TIME. SONG BRINGS SO MANY MEMORIES
I loved this song when I was like 6 years old, which cracks me up.
I had a little bar in Gatlinburg Tn. This was one of the favorite songs played on the jukebox

My friend DeWayne wrote this I was the first person to hear this song...the next song to hit the top was called the song that would never go away...Friends in low places the number 5 country song of all time...if I had to choose my favorite it would be the Carter Family...
Heck yeah 😊🎉
I had forgot all about this song. I used to play it a lot, gotta go back to it.
Simply a fantasy in lyric form ! Genius !! 🎉🎉🎉
One of my favorites by Mr. Frizzell
Classic country is the best. Seems like the country music now is more rock
Still love this song! Thsnks
Back when country music was country, not gangsta’ rap wannabe.
I haven’t even seen the freshman class country performers; are they grabbing their junk while they sing like the n( African Americans)?
It is 2021 and rappers have still taken over every single genre. Most are dumb *bastards* too! How do they get country, with everything else?!
@@walterkersting9922 It is gross. Most are dumb *bastards*. Arrogant, Brutes with guns and their butt cheeks hanging out!
@@walterkersting9922 not cool bro
David and his brother Lefty is 1st cousins with my grandpa !! Raised in Ark country as cotton and so talented! ♥️
Hello Angie how are you doing
Yeah!!. I hear it. Get on home boys!!❤😂😊
One of THE most famous Classic country songs. Hilarious and creative and makes me laugh every time I listen to it.
Love this song ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I was a kid in the early 2000s and my dad used to sing this almost every day. It annoyed me so much that I would blast my video game music from my room and drown him out. Now I wish I could hear his rendition just one more time.
I've heard this song many of time's,but as I'm sitting here drinking, this is the best idea I've ever heard
I remember hearing this song way back from when I was a small child and there was still some bars with sawdust dance floors. I still find it funny😂 and a great song💯❤💯
@michaelsmith3550 Hi Michael I'm doing fine thanks for asking 😊😊And yourself?
In 2022 musical born talent is almost non existent .
My mama use to have this song playing ever Sunday afternoon when daddy came crawling home after being out all weekend.. Which was ever weekend... My brothers&I use to hate Sunday cause they were going to fight.. There is 1× I remember my parents got in a fight with coffee and corn starch😅😅.. My baby brother was old a month old so there was plenty of corn starch in the house.. That's the only time I can remember my brothers and myself laughed our butts off when they were fighting... To see two grown people throwing coffee and corn starch on each other😅😅... It took them 4hrs to clean up all the coffee and corn starch off the walls and every piece of furniture we had😅😅😅
How are you? So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song
You know i have a woman friend that did this. They live by the river. Its a destination place now. Ive seen horses in that bar, naked people in that bar, etc. People come in on 4 wheelers, tubes, jeeps, etc. Also, you can camp there! Its called MVP Happy Holler in Newton, Illinois
Great song. I love this kind of country music.
Old Rocker j

Jody Lee my grandmother loved her wine but my grandfather had to limit her intake. He made his own wine which was kick ass and gave my grandmother a mason jar full each day and that was her limit unless they got company she would get extra. I often drank at ten am so she could have her extra glass or two and we would put on this song and sing like rock stars lol. I sure do miss her
Tim B. love this!!
beautiful
sounds like a country song
Sorry for your loss
My grandmother owned a tavern in Great Meadows,NJ and I remember this one
A favorite of mine and my husband found it on a 45 and went into our Jukebox so get to play it with a push of a button.
You're absolutely right good evening Brenda how are you doing over there hope you're having a wonderful day, it's a lovely day that the lord has made.
Ironically, it was potent Country Music like this that planted the alcohol consumption meme in me to start with. (But it was probably Johnny Horton's "Honkey Tonk Man" that really kicked THAT "snowball" down the mountainside, but this song wasn't even a "speedbump" to get my drinking/barhopping to slow down. Fortunately age has played a vital role in imbuing me with common sense when it comes to the behaviors described in this song😂)
Loved this song while I was worken jobsites in Houston late 70's. We actually had boomboxes back then.
Awesome song 😂😂😂😂 I come in peace ✌️
Love the old songs
Oh they do make them but let's admint it were still used to the main singers I'm old school and always will be but some of the newer singers been doing a good job of remake of the old songs rest in pease every one that died not to long ago you maybe gone but your definitely not forgotten
All the gold in California Gatling brothers
I like that old classic country song😅
I love country music I was born n raised listening to Conway and Loretta, George Jones, Johnny Cash and June, and still love all of country music but now a days it's like it used to be don't get me wrong I just. miss the good ole days, each of you that has passed away you are always in my heart and you are missed by many blessings your way n always believe,
Good song ❤❤
Oh crap this is freaking hilarious 😊
This song is still funny.During the early 1980's David Frizzell and Shelley West had a few hits together, and I had one of their LPs. "You're the Reason God Made Oklahoma". The LP cover was beautiful and super glossy.
OMG, I LOVE THESE GOOD OLD CLASSIC SONGS AWESOME SONG KEEP BRINGING IT
Me too check out me channel....
Me to
My grandmother used to love this song. I can remember her singing along with the radio when I was younger
Jessica Matley I'm sorry for your loss. Today would've been my grandmother's 79th bday. She passed in 2013.
May she rest in peace and may you enjoy your Thanksgiving
