Another new song on the theme of alchoholic beverages...funny how this particular time of year seems to bring out one's dark side...i'll be back to my old self again soon!
The song explores a life spiralling down into alchoholic depression...but don't worry folks, it's not about me! (though maybe one or two good friends i knew...), i hardly touch a drop these days...honest! (-;

Guitar - Punch 2
Boss SE-70

PLAY LOUD!

I'M SO DRUNK...AGAIN


HAD BAD WORDS, SHE STOMPED OFF.
MY HEAD HURTS, JUST HAD ENOUGH.
LOST MY JOB, COULDN'T DO IT ANYWAY,
TOLD MY BOSS, HE COULD STUFF HIS PAY.

...I'M DRUNK...AGAIN
I'M SO..SO DRUNK AGAIN...

MY CAR GOT CRUSHED, THE OTHER DAY,
DAMN THING DROVE LIKE SHIT ANYWAY.
FOLKS THINK I'M STUPID - I HEARD SAY,
DON'T LIKE NOBODY, ANYWAY.

...I'M DRUNK...AGAIN
I'M SO...SO DRUNK AGAIN...

CHORUS - ONE THING I KNOW, THERE'S NOTHING, YOU SEE,
WILL EASE MY SITUATION, LIKE MY GOOD FRIEND WISS-KEE...!

...I'M DRUNK...AGAIN
I'M SO...SO DRUNK AGAIN...

DOC SAYS MY LIVER, IS IN DECAY,
MIGHT DIE SOON - WHEN,HE WOULDN'T SAY.
DON'T GIVE A SHIT, I NEVER ASKED TO BE BORN,
I GOT NO FUTURE, FEEL SO FORLORN.

...I'M DRUNK...AGAIN
I'M SO...SO DRUNK AGAIN...

BROKE MY STRAT, THREW IT AWAY,
DON'T CARE TOO MUCH, COULDN'T PLAY IT ANYWAY.
LYIN' IN THE GUTTER, LOOKIN' AT A TREE,
IT PUNCHED MY FACE! ...STUPID PLACE TO PUT A TREE...

...I'M DRUNK...AGAIN
I'M SO...SO DRUNK...

CHORUS - ONE THING I KNOW, THERE'S NOTHING, YOU SEE,
WILL EASE MY SITUATION, LIKE MY GOOD FRIEND WISS-KEE...

...I'M DRUNK...AGAIN
I'M SO...SO DRUNK AGAIN...

...I'M DRUNK...AGAIN
I'M SO DRUNK....

JUST LET ME SLEEP...

c storz - good question, as far as i know a copyright can be contested if any work is marked "copyright" in writing, other than that it is usual if you want to cover the song on an amateur level by a simple request the song creator for permission if possible, in most cases it is never a problem (-;

Who andhow do you go about obtaining copyrights.

Comment by Slowpaw Steve T on October 30, 2011 at 7:40pm

wow thanks for all the great comments people!

A number of influences involved here, not least of all Shane Speal, Tony TS McPhee and Peter Gabriel!   met Tony at a gig in the 80's, had a chat and bought him a pint - well, it was the least i could do for one of my favourite Blues giants...!  (-;

Silent Jim - more Phil Mitchell than BGW i think (-;

c storz - tuning is G+D+G+b+.....the kids will love it,  though i don't think their moms and dads will be too happy..!

Hollowbelly - i'm sure i've read that on a bumper sticker somewhere...! (-;

Brickdust Steve - i got more sides than an an old thruppenny bit!

good song and really well performed!!..I love how it goes slower at the "I'm drunk again" bit...unexpected and I think it really works!!
Comment by Mr.C on October 30, 2011 at 5:40am
