girls got feelings

Lyrics

I wanna open tonight with

..a real man's song

..and thank you all for comin out on a Monday night to Lilly's


This little story was told
late one night..in a diner
so long ago ..
could smoke at the table
gave you coffee all night
for the price of a single cup

its called... About 100 Bottles ..
think it captures ..the way he told it

woke up on the beach..
wipin the sand from my forehead

..couple hours from sunlight..
my best guess
wondering where I might happen to be

slowly then suddenly..
..I remember..
was about 100 bottles of whiskey ago

..a sweet time in my life a girl
..she loved me..
and my jokes
thoroughly enjoyed
my carefree ways..

and ever since
been committed to navigating
lifes twists and turns
with the wisdom and clarity
only a bottle of whisky can bring

and it started
about a hundred bottles of whiskey ago..

well ..as they will do ..almost overnight..
my sweet girl became a woman..

reflecting back
this wasnt very good for our relationship

my jokes werent funny anymore

and my best
most charming smile
couldnt produce
not even a grin..

must have been about 100 bottles a whiskey ago

now I have new best friends
..almost every night
and ..sometimes.. life works ..and I get almost right..

but more often than not..
late in the evening

come uninvited thoughts

kinda things that might make a weaker man cry
...but I dont cry

but might take a couple hundred bottles of whiskey to kill
to kill the memory when you laughed at my jokes

and I could make you smile with just a simple look

life was sweet and we knew it
...so so sweet

I do cry.. sometimes

and it all started about a hundred bottles of whiskey ago
