Question
Male vocalist - bluesy / jazzy - I know I probably heard it for the first time 20-25 years ago - a street performer in the French Quarter used it in a marionette act.

Song is about his bad woman who 'pours liquor in her coffee, she pours liquor in her tea, she pours liquor in me .....'

Any ideas?

Answer
Heey
sorry for the delay in my answer ,

Yeah I heard those lines in Jimmy Witherspoon song, its called "Whiskey Drinking Woman". Hope its the one, if you can access lala.com u can hear it there and verify if its the one.

"She puts whiskey in the coffee, whiskey in the tea, whiskey in the whiskey, too much whiskey me, she is a whiskey drinkin' woman, I love her just the same"
