C
White boy in town
Big black, blue sound
F
Night club, I paid in
C
I got a stamp on my skin

F G
Main attraction dead on his feet
F G
Black man rhythm with a white boy beat

[Riff]
They got him on milk and alcohol
They got him on milk and alcohol

Stay put I wanna go
Hard work, bad show
More liquor, it dont help
Hes gonna die, it breaks my heart

I decided eventually
This aint doing a thing for me
They got him on milk and alcohol
They got him on milk and alcohol

[guitar solo]

They got him on milk and alcohol
They got him on milk and alcohol
(same riff but in F)
They got him on milk and alcohol
(Back to ordinary riff)
They got him on milk and alcohol

Got up, I walked out
To the car, start it up
Feel bad, sad night
I never saw a red light

Sirens were a screamin all around
I pulled on over and I shut her down
A black cop gave me a shove with his gun
Said up against the wall and dont make a run
They got me on milk and alcohol
They got me on milk and alcohol
