Well, like I explained to you all before
I ain't no drinkin man
I tried it once and it got me highly irregular
And I swore I'd never do it again
But I promised my brother in-law that
I'd go up and watch his still
While he went in to town to vote
It was right up on the mountain
Where the map said it would be
Friends, let me tell you one thing
Though it wasn't no ordinary still
It stood up on that mountainside
Like a hugh golden opal
God's yeller moon shinin on the cool clear evenin
God's little lanterns twinklin on and off in the heavens
Like I explained to you once before, I ain't no drinkin' man
But temptation got the best of me
And I took a slash
That yella whiskey runnin down my throat
Like honey dew vine water
And I took another slash
Took another 'n another 'n another 'n
For you knew I'd downed one whole jug of that shit
And commenced to gettin hot flashes
Goose pimples was runnin up and down my body
And a feelin came over me
Like somethin I'd never experienced before
It was like, like I was in love
In love for the first time, with anything that moved
Animate, inanimate it didn't matter
It's like there's a great neon sign flashin on n off in my brain sayin
"Jimmy Buffett, there's a great day a comin!"
Cause I was drunk
I wasn't knee crawlin, slip slidin, Reggie Youngin
Commode huggin drunk
I ain't no drinkin man
I tried it once and it got me highly irregular
And I swore I'd never do it again
But I promised my brother in-law that
I'd go up and watch his still
While he went in to town to vote
It was right up on the mountain
Where the map said it would be
Friends, let me tell you one thing
