Johnny Cash - Leave That Junk Alone (Alabama 3 Remix)
Key of , ear-transcribed on ukulele by Neil Killer.
This was tabbed from Alabama 3's remix of "Leave That Junk Alone", which 
includes elements of Johnny's original recording and Alabama 3's added verses. 
From the highly controversial 2009 album, Johnny Cash Remixed.
Alabama 3's lyrics were difficult to transcribe, but I got them all, save for 
one word!

Leave that junk alone
Leave that junk alone
Leave that junk alone
And drink cool H2O

Well, me and a couple of good ol' boys
Took a taxi ride downtown
Were checking out a honkytonks
Waiting for the man to come around

Lined up ten tequilas
Lined up a twenty chase of beer
Put the (glata???) on the barmaid
Said, "Don't you ever come back in here!"

Johnny said,
Drink water, Lord, that liquor is hot, drink water
Please Johnny, just a one more shot
Drink water, Lord, that liquor is hot, drink water
Somebody took the bottle top off

We would shoot a bitch our stares
Acutely aware of the state we was in
Met a nun called Mary in a strip joint
Said she'd guide us through the city of sin

Bought a thousand Marlboro Reds
We got a quart of Bombay gin
Looking for salvation in some out-of-town Comfort Inn

Then Johnny busted down the door
King James Bible in his hand
Eyes burning with a rapture
He'd seen the angels in the Promised Land

Well, I could hear that train a-comin', Lord
My mind was going 'round the bend
The good ol' boys put the bottle top on the floor
They'd never touch a drop again

BRIDGE:
Johnny said,
Your eyes are baggy and a bloodshot red
It's been a week or two since you've been in bed
You better pay attention now to what I said
You better leave that junk alone and drink water

You come home feeling for the knob on the door
You better pick up your feet, you're gonna fall on the floor
I keep on telling you, I'll tell you some more
You better leave that junk alone and drink water

Now I'll forgive you for your running around
If you just promise that you'll come unwound
I'll buy you anything you want in town
If you'll leave that junk alone

Leave that junk alone (and drink water)
Leave that junk alone
Leave that junk alone (and drink water)
And drink cool H2O

Leave that junk alone (and drink water)
Leave that junk alone
Leave that junk alone (and drink water)
And drink cool ... 2O
