Solitare (The Old Way) - Booze Monkey
Written by：Blue Ajay
Listenin' to nick cave tom and waits
And drinking yukon jack
Playin' solitaire the old way
Bshufflin' the stack
My fingers are too sore to play guitar
But my mind keeps casting back
It's nearly dawn and dark as hell
My insomnia is back
Nostalgia is like drambuie
It's sweet but it packs a whallup
When memories break through the haze
They do so at a gallop
I thought I had them tethered down
By the old pass just outside of town
But they've been freed by a black-hat clown
And found their way right back around
Playin' solitaire the old way
Alone and boxing time
Playin' solitaire the old way
Just to occupy my mind
Playin' solitaire the old way
In fear of coming dawn
Fighting to keep my thoughts at bay
Like undead on the lawn
George romero's legacy
Sometimes more a grin than others
Another drink to dull my brain
I'd wipe it out if I had my druthers
Playin' solitaire the old way
Alone and boxing time
Playin' solitaire the old way
Just to occupy my mind
There's nothing like unfocused anger
To leave one a bit perplexed
Like a teenage trip to new orleans
Debating credence to a hex
Runnin' low on lime juice
And I've lost another hand
The sun it stumbles by horizon's edge
Just before it floods the land
Playin' solitaire the old way
By the table on the floor
Playin' solitaire the old way
Even diversion is a chore
Even diversion is a chore
Like the too proverbial snake
Consuming it's own tail
My thoughts devour my mind
And I I don't depression's veil
The thoughts are caught in a feedback loop
From speaker to pickup and back
The things I wish I'd never thought
Just stack upon the stack
I count through 52 cards again
And dwell on familiar patterns
It's yukon on the rocks this time
I'm outta lime in my private tavern
Playin' solitaire the old way
Alone and boxing time
Playin' solitaire the old way
Just to occupy my mind
Just to occupy my mind
Just to occupy my mind
