DRUNK AND CRAZY
(Shel Silverstein)


Bobby Bare - 1980





Well hello everybody, I've come to say
I didn't come to stay,  I just come to play
So lock all the doors and open up the wine
Tell all the pretty ladies to get in line
'Cause I'm drunk and crazy (Drunk and crazy)
Drunk and crazy (Drunk and crazy)
Drunk and crazy, gonna let the good times roll

Way 'cross the room I see a fancy fox
I got the key to open up her lock
Slide across the floor like a greasy eel
I say hey baby, tell me how do you feel
She says drunk and crazy (Drunk and crazy)
She says drunk and crazy (Drunk and crazy)
Drunk and crazy, gonna let the good times roll

I say let 'em roll

(Instrumental Break)

(Drunk and crazy, drunk and crazy)

I was just about to put the cake in the oven
Look over my shoulder and there's her big ol' husband
He was turnin' blue, he was seein' red
Knocked me down, slapped me round and stomped on my head
He was drunk and crazy (Drunk and crazy)
He was drunk and crazy (Drunk and crazy)
He was drunk and crazy, gonna let the good times roll

They got me to the hospital in the nick of time
I had a fractured skull and a busted spine
When in come the doctor, he could hardly stand
Got a bottle in his pocket and a scalpel in his hand
He was drunk and crazy (Drunk and crazy)
He was drunk and crazy (Drunk and crazy)
Drunk and crazy, lettin' them good times roll
