[length: 03:33]
[00:09.98]I used to be your favorite drunk
[00:12.14]Good for one more laugh
[00:13.10]Then we both ran out of luck
[00:16.13]Luck was all we ever had
[00:18.68]You put on a uniform
[00:20.61]To fight the Civil War
[00:22.67]You looked so good I didn’t care
[00:25.66]What side you’re fighting for
[00:27.97]It wasn’t all that easy
[00:29.33]When you up and walked away
[00:31.96]But I’ll save that little story
[00:33.93]For another rainy day
[00:36.92]I know the burden’s heavy
[00:38.65]As you wheel it through the night
[00:40.61]Some people say it’s empty
[00:42.90]But that don’t mean it’s light
[01:03.82]You left me with the dishes
[01:05.52]And a baby in the bath
[01:08.13]You’re tight with the militias
[01:10.19]You wear their camouflage
[01:12.58]You always said we’re equal
[01:14.58]So let me march with you
[01:16.55]Just an extra in the sequel
[01:19.11]To the old red white and blue
[01:21.54]Baby don’t ignore me
[01:23.84]We were smokers we were friends
[01:26.17]Forget that tired story
[01:28.49]Of betrayal and revenge
[01:30.68]I see the Ghost of Culture
[01:32.81]With numbers on his wrist
[01:35.20]Salute some new conclusion
[01:37.66]Which all of us have missed
[01:58.45]I cried for you this morning
[02:00.09]And I’ll cry for you again
[02:02.09]But I’m not in charge of sorrow
[02:04.24]So please don’t ask me when
[02:06.71]There may be wine and roses
[02:08.77]And magnums of champagne
[02:11.09]But we’ll never no we’ll never
[02:13.27]Ever be that drunk again
[02:22.10]The party’s over
[02:24.34]But I’ve landed on my feet
[02:28.71]I’ll be standing on this corner
[02:34.92]Where there used to be a street
[02:39.39]The party’s over
[02:42.62]But I’ve landed on my feet
[02:46.92]I’ll be standing on this corner
[02:51.60]Where there used to be a street
[02:56.24]So let’s drink to when it’s over
[02:59.75]And let’s drink to when we meet
[03:04.70]I’ll be standing on this corner
[03:08.73]Where there used to be a street
[03:16.03]The party’s over
[03:18.35]But I’ve landed on my feet
[03:23.33]I’ll be standing on this corner
