I saw on youtube you sing "Brown derby liqour".
I wonder if you can help me with the lyrics on that song.
I ahave pick out 90% of it but i can not hear the rest of it. And i am unsure if i got the 90% right.

Sure-

Down at Brown derby Liquor you can buy yourself a little peace of mind-
Down the street around the corner is everything you need for your desire-
Thats where the sinners and saints all meet to get thier medication-
Now its seeped out,its bound to sweep the nation,
At Brown derby Liqour you can buy yourself a little peace of mind.
They dont know me by name,or about the road thats in my eyes-
They dont know how I got this way or what I did to deserve this life-
But they know what I drink,know what I like-they know ill be back tomorrow night-
At Brown Derby Liqour you can buy yourself a little peace of mind.
Harp and guitar solos-

Daybreak is behind me and another morning greets the afternoon-
Soon i will be smiling with all my friends and howling at the moon-
Just another day in paradise and here i am the king-
and all my wishes drunk up to provide this drunkards dream-
At Brown Derby Liqour you can buy yourself a ilttle peace of mind {twice to end} cha-cha-cha

Thank you. It's hard to be Swede sometimes..
The english blues language and lexicon english is not always the same. :)

Edit:
Hmmm
The last verse.
"and all my wishes drunk up to provide this drunkards dream-"
Aint it something lik: "Inside this drunkards...???"
