Lyrics:

Yeah, some folks like water
A-some folks like wine
But I like the taste
Of straight strychnine
You may think it's funny, haha
That I like this stuff
But once you've tried it
You can't get enough

The wine is red and
Poison is blue
Strychnine is good
For what's a-ailin' you, oh, oh, oh

The wine is red and
Poison is blue
Strychnine is good
For what's a-ailin' you, oh, oh

If you listen to what I say
And you try strychnine someday
Make you choke, it'll make you shout
Oh, it'll even knock you out
A-some folks like water
A-some folks like wine
But I like the taste
Of straight strychnine

Strychnine, ayy, ayy
Strychnine, ayy, ayy
Strychnine, ayy, ayy
Strychnine
