28 DAYS IN TUSCON

Pills, when they rattle in the bottle gives me chills,
Weed, when it's fillin' up my lungs it's what I need,
Cheap gin, when it's slidin' down and dribblin' on my chin,
It makes me a happy pappy, I jump up and down and clappy,
In that lubricated state I'm livin' in.
chorus
Twenty eight days in Tuscon,
Ain't doing me no good.
I can't change the way my brain is arranged,
Lord knows, I wish I could.
At least 12 times, I've walked the 12 steps and I'm,
Always ending up on the wrong foot.
Twenty eight days in Tuscon,
Ain't doing me no good.
Girls, I love the ones that live in cheap motels.
Wives, I've done that dance and just left number five.
The road, the only place that I can still call home.
I love to ride my Harley cause it gets me to the party,
And any seedy place I need to go.
repeat chorus
bridge
When they let me out tomorrow, as I'm waving to the shrink,
I'll be headin' for the bar to turn my chip in for a drink.
