Alternate version?

Bad Bad Whiskey Lyrics

?from Buddy Guy and Junior Wells Play the Blues

Bad, bad whiskey
Bad, bad whiskey
Bad, bad whiskey
Made me loose my happy home
Made me loose my happy home

Whiskey endless women
Is driving me out of my mind
Ev'ry time I get a lover that's tough you know
I think I'm doin' just fine
Bad, bad whiskey
Bad, bad whiskey
Bad, bad whiskey
Made me loose my happy home
Made me loose my happy home

I went out last night
Finally knocked myself outta sight
I got full of that bad stuff
And almost started a fight
Bad, bad whiskey
Bad, bad whiskey
Bad, bad whiskey
Made me loose my happy home
Made me loose my happy home

I wanna tell you baby
I'm now feeling just fine
I think I'll stop drinking whiskey,
and going back to bad wine
Bad, bad whiskey
Bad, bad whiskey
Bad, bad whiskey
Made me loose my happy home
Made me loose my happy home

Let me tell you
Oh, that bad whiskey
Oh, that bad whiskey
Oh, that no good whiskey

Songwriters
DAVIS, THOMAS MAXWELL

Wow, and a good rockin'song too! Way to go! Doesn't seem to be that song by DAVIS, THOMAS MAXWELL because the lyrics are completely different except for the title. So is this an Amos Milburn cover? Can't seem to find the lyrics for that song.

So it doesn't seem to be the Amos Milburn song either. It has the same chorus than the Thomas Maxwell Davis
song but completely different refrains / lyrics. But even the chorus on Gregg's song is different since it's without
"Made me loose my happy home".

So it's a cover from another source?

Or is it a...................................new composition by Gregory?

Zydeco great Boozoo Chavis modified that tune some & re-titled it "Bad Bad Woman".
Here's another zydeco great, Beau Jocque performing it:

Thanks for pointing that out! Really like this song. Has a great drive. Should become a setlist regular for Gregg.
