Song: A Lot To Drink About Tab
A Lot to Drink About
C C7
Up on the east side of Manhattan,
Fm C
They're still dancing with the stars
Fm C
While over in "Sub-prime" city,
h^B G7
It's getting angry in the local bars
F C
Watching the news only gives me the blues,
h^F# Am
There's too much going wrong
Fm C
It takes the likes of me to hit the reboot key
G7 C
And write a high speed drinking song.
C C7
Millionaires losing everything.
Fm C
Hey, welcome to the other side of life!
Fm C
There goes the yacht, there goes the Rolls,
h^B G7
But, you get to keep your wife!
F C
And don't forget the automakers
h^F# Am
Swimming upstream like a trout.
Fm C
They let the s**t hit the fan and then they made a plan,
G7 C
We've got a lot to drink about.
Chorus
F C
It's the price of oil, the war of spoils.
C Am
Where's your bucket for the big bailout?
F C
Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan,
G7 C
We've got a lot to drink about.
C C7
Now, "Madoff "made off with all the money.
Fm C
Now his clients are down to skunk weed.
Fm C
Repeat after me, it's so easy to see,
h^B G7
We're only talking simple greed.
F C
And those Somalian pirates are counting all the gold.
h^F# Am
While Bush & Cheney ain't around,
Fm C
And all the good lookers seem to be Czech hookers,
G7 C
Chorus
Bb F
So pour me some Tennessee whiskey,
Bb F
Pour me a fine Jamaican rum
Bb F
That loud mouth soup gets me kind of looped,
D G
Tequila, of course I'll have some!
C C7
Now the family devalues
Fm C
And little children count their net worth
Fm C
And the truth wherever it's hiding
h^B G7
F C
Citibank's buying jets with our money.
h^F# Am
I wanna flog 'em with a buggy whip.
Fm C
I hope Obama and Joe won't let the volcano blow
G7 C
And patch the hole in our sinking ship.
Chorus
F C
Recession, depression, regression? Good-God!
C Am
CNN keeps bumming me out.
F C
I can't take another doomsday moment.
G7 G7 G7 C
We got a lot to drink, a lot to think, a lot to drink about.
