Alcohol and Pills

歌詞

Hank Williams, he came up, from Montgomery With a heart full of hard-luck country songs But Nashville, Tennessee, they didn't Understand him because he did things Differently then the way they were done but when he finally made it to the Grand Ole Opry... he made it stand still. He ended up on alcohol and pills Evil Presely, he came up from Jackson With a brand new way of singing A brand new way of dancing And even from the waist up, he gave the world A thrill... he ended up on alcohol and pills Alcohol and pills It's a crying shame you'd think they might have been happy with the glory and the fame the fame don't take away the pain it just pays the bills and you wind up on alcohol and pills Janis Joplin, she was a wild and reckless Then there was Gram Parsons, then there was Jimmy Hendrix. The story just goes on and on. I guess it always will... they ened up on Alcohol and pills Alcohol and pills It's a crying shame You'd think they might have been happy With the glory and the fame The fame don't take away the pain It just pays hte bills And you wind up on alchol and pills Sometimes somebody won't wake up one day Sometimes it's a heart attack Sometimes, they won't say When they pulled poor old Hank Williams Out of that Cadillac Coupe de Ville He ended up on alcohol and pills Alcohol and pills It's a crying shame You'd think they might have been happy With the glory and the fame The fame don't take away It just pays the bills And you wind up on alcohol and pills ... on alcohol and pills
