Drinking Song

 

Long time ago, I was driving a taxi and I saw a pile up of cars with huge spotlights all over the scene and I thought oh cool they’re shooting a movie. But later I heard that someone got overserved and ran out on a check from a restaurant here in Santa Fe. They hauled ass down Cerrelos road and plowed into a car at a stoplight. It was a mom and dad with their two little girls in the backseat. The girls died and the parents lived. We got our prompt on Monday and on Friday an Uber driver picked me up, we were talking and I asked her what else she had done around Santa Fe and she said she used to work at the restaurant, the blue corn. I immediately said were you there that night? She said no, but she knew all about it and the guy was celebrating his ninth DWI. sometimes the universe just gives you material and I think Katrina is kind of connected to the universe in a really good way.

Drinking song

I used to love to party

at the bar with my friends

I could drink them under the table

Stay till the party ends

But the party never ends

 oh yeah oh yeah

One night I was celebrating

My ninth DWI

I hopped  in my truck

And hit the road

But two girls had to die

Yeah two girls had to die 

but why oh why

I woke up behind a dumpster

With a bottle in my hand

Then the cops they took me away

And in the jail I did land

Yeah in the jail I did land again, again

And now I am dying

Of cirrhosis of the liver

The party’s almost over

And the liquor store won’t deliver

And the liquor store won’t deliver 

oh no, oh no

I used to be

the life of the party

Yeah I thought I was pretty cool

Now I realize that I’ve been duped

yes I am the fool

Yes I am the fool

But if I can ever get out of this jail

you know what I’m gonna do?

Gonna get the biggest bottle of vodka

A celebration is overdue

A celebration is overdue

For me and you
