True Very Funny Story

Post by Patrick » Thu Oct 21, 2021 4:08 am

I think I related this story before, but it's worth a repeat...

My brother was on a music site a few years back and this serious Country artist showcased his song. It was about how his only friends in the world were named after hard liquor...like Johnny Walker, Jack Daniels, Captain Morgan, etc. It was a sad/ lonely Country tune about an alcoholic.

He titled his song...(drum roll)....

"All of My Friends Came in a Bottle"

LMAO!

The visual that title gives you just cracked me up! :lol:

I think I’ve heard an old blues tune with a very similar title, though I can’t remember where.

country rips off original ideas of old blues arists for weak sauce result.

Kevin Fowler Lyrics
"Me And The Boys"
(feat. George Jones)


[KF:]
My best friend Bud you know he's the king
He makes me do some stupid things
When he's around oh, anything goes

[GJ:]
Jose's gonna be there tonight
he'll either get me in a fight
or up on the bar, singing in espanol.

[Chorus:]
[KF:] (Yeah) Tonight its just me and the boys
I'll be kickin back with Jim and Jack
& Johnny Walker Red and Black
[GJ:] They never seem to let me down
they're always good for one more round
[Both:] tonight its just me and the boys

[KF:]
George Dickel he's a real good boy
but he's the reason I'm unemployed
when I hang with him
Oh I always punch in late.

[GJ:]
Now Captain Morgan he's ornery guy
he ran off with my second wife
god bless that man I thank him everyday

[Chorus: x2]
[GJ:] Tonight its just me and the boys
I'll be kickin back with Jim and Jack
Johnny Walker Red and Black
[KF:] They never seem to let me down
they're always good for one more round
[Both:] tonight its just me and the boys

[KF:] Tonight its just me and the boys
I'll be kickin back with Jim and Jack
[Both:] Johnny Walker Red and Black
[KF:] They never seem to let me down
[GJ:] they're always good for one more round
[KF:] tonight its just me and the boys

[GJ:] tonight its just me and the...
[KF:] tonight its just me and the...
[GJ:] tonight its just
[Both:] me and the boys
