God's moon shinin' on the cool clear evenin' little lanterns twinklin' on and off in the heavens Like I explain'd to you once before I ain't no man But got the best of me And I a slash That whiskey runnin' down my throat Like honey dew vine
And I took slash Took an another'n an another'n For you knew I'd downed one whole jug of shit And commenced to gettin' hot Goose pimples was runnin' up and down my And a came over me Like somethin' I'd never before It was like, I was in love In love for the first time, with that moved Animate, inanimate it didn't It's like there's a great neon flashin' on an' off In my brain sayin' "Jimmy Buffett there's a day a comin'" 'Cause I was I knee crawlin', slip slidin', Reggie Youngin' Commode huggin'
I was own drunk and a fearless man And that's when I first saw the He was a Kodiak lookin' fella 'bout nineteen tall He rambled up over the me to do one of two things Flip or fly, I didn't do one It him up
