Last Bottle

The very last bottle 
I ever did friend,
was old Jack Daniels
he was with me at the end 
good buy to fast nights 
Good time friends
Ee-i, Ee-i, oh

Music & Blues 
The times were good
Celebrate life
And the misunderstood
Blowing of hassles 
The best that we could
Ee-i, Ee-i, oh

There was gin one summer
For a year or two
visions of Bombay
in red, white & blue
Cricket and tennis
What ever we do
Ee-i, Ee-i, oh

Beer was in season 
The whole world wide
Rivers and streams 
I took it in stride
Always a friend 
To drink by my side
Ee-i, Ee-i, oh

Wine from the vineyard 
In southern France 
Toast to the art
And learn how to dance
Joy and delusion
A great romance 
Ee-i, Ee-i, oh

There was love for a woman
Come & gone
3 fingers of scotch 
To finish a song
A thimble of heaven
All night long
Ee-i, Ee-i, oh

Drama and karma
Woven between
Artistic visions 
And some scary scenes
Thinking all the time
It was a joyous dream
Ee-i, Ee-i, oh

Delirium tremor 
Black out & jokes
Alcoholic junkies
Seemed to love me the most
Wreckage and survivors 
One last toast
Ee-i, Ee-i, oh

There was Booz to forget
And some to get by
just pass the time
Or just to get high
Live well now 
for tomorrow we die
Ee-i, Ee-i, oh

Bourbon was a friend 
hard to forget
An evenings reflection
With no regret
Loss and sorrow 
Forget about tomorrow
Ee-i, Ee-i, oh

2 step, 3 step, 7 or more,
Whatever it takes, to get through that door
The long slow waking
And shed from the core
Ee-i, Ee-i, Ohio

They ask me how 
When it was time to End 
Lovers can say good by
And can still be friends
Nothing lasts forever
So let's not pretend 
Ee-i, Ee-i, oh

The very last bottle 
A long slow good by
Put down the glass
and breath to get high
Keep loving memories
Me oh my
Ee-i, Ee-i, oh
