My feet are in the snow

I want to let them know

How heavy it can be

When that drunken man is me


Just simply to get up

And quickly to throw up

It will take me awhile

And it’s like I’ve run a mile


No one will ever know

I also have some blow

I must find it now

“Hey, look at that gal.”


My mind is so messed up

But my shoes are gone

Why can’t I just get up?

Instead of freaking moan


How difficult can be

When that drunken man is me


I just cannot explain

Although I admit

I think that gal’s Loraine

To one like her, I can commit


My feet are getting cold

But vodka saved my soul

And even though I’m old

I wouldn’t let her go


An empty bottle kissed my lips

The cigarette end is still in my hand

Passers-by judge me with a stare

They can’t understand that brief is my flare


I lie down

It’s time to rest

Nobody’s clown

I’m only a guest.
