lirik lagu spider robinson - the drunkard's song
a swell and wealthy relative of mine had up and died
and i got a hundred thousand from the will
so a friend and i decided to convert this into liquid form
the better our esophagi to fill
so we started in the city, had a drink in every sh~tty
little ginmill, which is really quite a few
then a cabbie up in harlem took us clean across the river
into brooklyn, where he joined us in a brew
we was weavin’ just a trifle as we pulled into astoria
at eighty miles an hour, in reverse
but it was nothin’ to the weavin’ that we did as we was leavin’
and from time to time it got a little worse
well, there’s nothing like drinkin’ up a windfall
we was drunker than a monkey with a skinfull
so goddam drunk it was sinful—and i think i ain’t sober yet
we was feelin’ mighty fine as we crossed the city line
suckin’ whiskey and a~whistlin’ at the girls
but the next saloon we try, a fella wants to black my eye
’cause he doesn’t like my sh~ggy hippy curls
so then a fist come out of orbit, knocked me clear across the floor
but i was fairly drunk and didn’t really care
and i was sorta disappointed when the coppers hit the joint
as i was makin’ my reb~ttal, with a chair
ah, but the coppers come a cropper, ’cause i made it to the cr~pper
and departed by a ventilator shaft
met my buddies in the alley as they slipped out through the galley
and we ran and ran and laughed and laughed and laughed
well, there’s nothing like drinkin’ up a windfall
we was drunker than a monkey with a skinfull
so goddam drunk it was sinful—and i think i ain’t sober yet
halfway out of levittown we got our second wind
in a dump so down and out i had to laugh
so i had another mug, and my friend another jug
and the hack another pitcher and a half
when we got to suffolk county we were goin’ into overdrive
the word had spread, and crowds began to form
we drank our way from jericho along 110 to merrick road
a~boozin’ and a~singin’ up a storm
i lost my buddy and the cabbie in the middle of the hamptons
we was drunker than it’s possible to be
but there finally came a time i didn’t have another dime
i sat on montauk point and wept into the sea
well, there’s nothing like drinkin’ up a windfall
we was drunker than a monkey with a skinfull
so goddam drunk it was sinful—and i think i ain’t sober yet
