Whiskey And Pills
The sun you know it rots my brainThe way I walk is with a caneThe wind it blows it takes me inAnd times it turns it makes me thin
My life is going down the drainMy wife you know she went insaneMy kids are messed up in the brainBut when I’m high I feel no shame
When my mind won’t hold stillWhen I feel the sickening chillsWhen I feel I’ve had my fillAnd every voice I hear is shrillI calm myself with whiskey and pillsI calm myself with whiskey and pills
The people I knowTheir number’s changedTheir view of me is rearrangedThe way I see they’re really strangeI’ve got no reason to play their games, yeah
They look at me with eyes a stareI look at them but I don’t careI tell them all, what’s fair is fairAnd here and there and everywhere
When my mind won’t hold stillWhen I feel the sickly chillsWhen I feel I’ve had my fillAnd every voice I hear is shrillI call upon my friendsWhiskey and pillsI call upon my friendsWhiskey and pillsOoh, ooh, whiskey and pills
When you see meI’m a-roaming aroundMy face hits the pavementYes I’m on the groundTurn me around, see if I’m okayCheck out this smileThat’s on my face
I never thought I was gonna dieUntil I stared into God’s eyesHe said to me “well, come on son,better shape up boy, your days are done”
Up my mind I got the chillsEven though he talked with skillOf the voice I heard the shrillIt was a sound I had to killI turned around and grabbedThe whiskey and pills
Can’t say goodbye toWhiskey and pillsI call upon my friendsWhiskey and pills
I calm myself withWhiskey and pills
