Ok guys and gals, here's my latest submission for a composer if anyone feels like having a go....
VERSE
Meet my old pal Mr Daniels
And his mate Mr Beam
Also known as Jack and Jim
Together we're hell of a team
Reality is just an illusion
Caused by lack of booze
Sobriety is just a delusion
Walking in a drunk guy's shoes
CHORUS
So pull me a beer
With a whiskey chaser
Plus one more for the road
No place to call home
I was born to roam
And carry this weary load
VERSE
I got friends in many places
A glass in every port
The same familiar faces
A cocktail, a beer, a short
The art of drinking ain't easy
You need to practice everyday
The joints are cheap and sleazy
But they sell liquor so all's ok
CHORUS
So pull me a beer
With a whiskey chaser
Plus one more for the road
No place to call home
I was born to roam
And carry this weary load
VERSE
Just because I'm never sober
Doesn't mean I'm always drunk
I always manage to recover
From the depths that I have sunk
My gait makes people smile
My slur is just for show
I neck my beer with style
While I hide under veils of woe
CHORUS
So pull me a beer
With a whiskey chaser
Plus one more for the road
No place to call home
I was born to roam
And carry this weary load
OUTRO
A pocket full of memories
My head hung low in shame
A wallet full of empty
Not a penny to my name
No - a life that's full of empty
And only myself to blame
