I'm Gonna Hire a Wino to Decorate Our Home

"I'm Gonna Hire a Wino to Decorate Our Home" is a song written by Dewayne Blackwell, and recorded by American country music artist David Frizzell.

The song was Frizzell's only number one on the country chart as a solo artist.

3 on the magazine's Top Country Tracks chart, the song unexpectedly became a mainstream pop hit in Canada, peaking at No.

The song talks of a wife who grows tired of her husband's barhopping (and spending his entire paycheck doing so).

She then comes up with a unique plan – she decides to redecorate their house into a bar, and play the part of bartender/waitress as an inducement to get her husband to stay at home (and possibly bring his friends along with him, so they can spend their paychecks).
