I'm Gonna Hire A Wino To Decorate Our Home: David Frizzell. #1 on BB Hot Country on WARNER Records in 1982. INTRO: E F C I came crawling home last night, like many nights F before. C F I finally made it to my feet as she opened up the C door. F C And she said, 'You're not gonna do this anymore.'
CHORUS: C F She said: I'm gonna' hire a wino to decorate our home, C so you'll feel more at ease here, and you won't need G to roam. A G C F We'll take out the dining room table, and put a bar along that wall. G C G And a neon sign, to point the way, to our bathroom down C the hall. #1. G C G C F She said: 'Just bring those Friday paychecks, and I'll cash Dm them all right here. C F C And I'll keep on tap, for all your friends, their favorite G kinds of beer. C G F And for you, I'll always keep in stock, those soft aluminum cans. Dm C G C And when you're feeling macho, you can crush them like a man.' #2. G C F She said: 'We'll rip out all the carpet, and put sawdust on the floor. C G Serve hard boiled eggs and pretzels, and I won't cook no more. C F There'll be Monday night football, on T.V. above the bar. C Am7 And a pay phone in the hallway, when your friends can't find G their car.' CHORUS: D G She said: I'm gonna' hire a wino to decorate our home, D so you'll feel more at ease here, and you won't need A to roam. B A D G We'll take out the dining room table, and put a bar along that wall. A D A And a neon sign, to point the way, to our bathroom down D the hall. #3. D G She said: You'll get friendly service, and for added atmosphere, D A I'll slip on something sexy, and I'll cut it clear to here. G A D G Then you can slap my bottom, every time you tell a joke. D A Just as long as you keep tipping, well, I'll laugh until you're D broke. #4. A D G She said: Instead of family quarrels, we'll have a bar-room brawl. D When the Ham's bear say's it's closing time, you won't have far to A crawl. D G And when you run out of money, you'll have me to thank. D A D You can sleep it off next morning, while I'm putting it in the bank. CHORUS: E A She said: I'm gonna' hire a wino to decorate our home, E so you'll feel more at ease here, and you won't need B to roam.
