"Old Man Bourbon"
Dark and misty on the highway
On a cold damp winter's night
Old Man Bourbon on his breath
As he lie there close to death.
Always boasting and bragging
Being the know it all that he was
Never turning down the temptations
Of Old Man Bourbon and cars.
Staring into the heavens
White snow flakes fall upon his lash
A cold soberness quickly upon him
When he relizes that he has crashed
As he struggles to shift his head
His body twisted and torn
He lets out a hurtling scream
Closes his eyes and mourns.
But closing his eyes does nothing.
The bourbin does not hide this horrible sight.
The bourbin that use to blind him
Will not blind him from what he sees tonight.
Staring at what's lying beside him
He screams in horror at top of his lungs.
For covered in blood on a blanket of snow,
He finds it is his dying son.
