what does this pharse mean?
I like a song which says " I think it would be OK if I got drunk everyday
'cause if I was a wino "I'd never have to be on time-o". We use the word "wino" here but just in our group of friends or people who skate, though most of them write it this way "Wayno" or "Waino" of course this just the way they heard it sounds. I never thought this word came from Nort America until couple years ago, anyway.
What last part means "I'd never have to be on time-o"?
Thanks in advance...

As Christie has said in this case time-o has been made up to fit in with the song. :) Wino (pronounced wine-oh) is slang for a heavy drinker/ alcoholic so basically they're saying if they were a drunk they wouldn't need to worry about being on time. :)

I think that in this case, whoever wrote the song was just trying to rhyme the words. "Time-o" doesn't actually mean anything!
