Re-tired

By megaprime81

Taking up a new profession 
If I can get the cash to flow
Ditching my old profession
From poet to drunkard,
yeah you know
It ain't easy
To afford my brand new job
Professional alcoholic
Ditchin' my poetry hobby
To be a professional drunk
Ain't nothin' I can come up with
Even if I'm drunk as a skunk

1,2,
So let me waltz on down to the sto'
To get some more beer to go
Lettin' my old job know
I'm packin' in my pen once mo'
I'm retirin'
Yeah, I'm retirin'
If i can afford it
Even though
Right now I'm flat broke
Hey, man this ain't no joke

1,2,3,4
I'm a dancin' a brand new jig
Gettin' a brand new gig
How long its gonna go
Depends all upon the cash flow
Blues out, ya'll
