The Drunkard's Doom - The Louvin Brothers[00:00:00]

It was on one dark and starless night[00:00:06]

I heard and saw an awful sight[00:00:12]

The lightning flashed the thunder rolled[00:00:17]

Across my dark denial soul[00:00:23]

I saw a gulf form down below[00:00:29]

Where all the dying drunkards go[00:00:35]

I saw another weeping crowd[00:00:40]

Blood shorten eyes and voices loud[00:00:46]

Come here young man we'll give you room[00:00:52]

This is the whiskey seller's doom[00:00:57]

I started there got there at last[00:01:03]

I thought I'd take a social glass[00:01:09]

But every time I started in[00:01:15]

I thought about the drunkard's den[00:01:20]

I smashed it down and left the place[00:01:26]

I went to seek redeeming grace[00:01:32]

I felt like Paul who once did pray[00:01:37]

For god to wash his sins away[00:01:43]

I started home to change my life[00:01:49]

To see my loving neglected wife[00:01:54]

I found her weeping over the bed[00:02:00]

Because our infant babe was dead[00:02:06]

I told her not to cry or weep[00:02:11]

Our little baby had gone to sleep[00:02:17]

It's little soul had passed away[00:02:23]

To ring with Christ an endless day[00:02:28]

I took her by her Lilly white hand[00:02:34]

She was so weak she could not stand[00:02:40]

I knelt her down and prayed a prayer[00:02:45]

That god might save and bless us there[00:02:51]

And now I live a better life[00:02:57]

In a christian home and a loving wife[00:03:02]
