sweet liquor how you ease me pain
give me comfort and ill refrain
tantalize me tastebuds as i **** you down
into me gullet
i wear no frown
you have good ideas
only awful advice
if it weren't for you
i'd always think twice
your gifts may be comfort
courage and seed
still if it weren't for you i'd not be in such need
in troubles i seem motionless...
then you come in
i need no psychiatrist
just a bottle of gin
sometime i shiver but you keep me warm
with your stench on my breath
i can weather the storm
when i'm good and drunk
i still tuck myself in
jesus did drink for the now and again...
