old familiar drunken feeling - corb lund lyrics

[verse 1]
oh, me and the boys, we was playin’ a show down colorado way
and when we realized they had legalized, well we thought we’d investigate
’cause there ain’t nuthin’ better than a little adventure just to shore up band morale
at least till the singer does a few too many milligrams of mis*adventurin’ somehow

we were met with a kid, born for his job, highly sk!lled and desirable
who up till now the world had found to be totally unhireablе
he knew the strеngths and the names, every hybrid strain that modern science has allowed
he said you don’t have to toke it, you don’t even gotta smoke it ’cause they make it for ya edible now

[chorus]
i want that old familiar drunken feelin’
washing over me this evenin’
i wanna be embraced like an old friend
heart is racin’, mind is reelin’
that old familiar drunken feelin’
something i can count on till the end

[verse 2]
it’s only noon, i’ll be fine, showtime ain’t till nine, i chewed and i told myself
but as the day wore on and on and on it all went rapidly to h*ll
well, i was high as a kite and it was freezin’ outside, i was terrified of people, too
between shiverin’ in the van and hidin’ in the can ’cause there wasn’t any dressing room

playin’ a gig was the very last thing that i wanted on my mind
the best advice that i got all night’s when old skinner did opine
he said don’t try to fight it, yeah, you’re just gonna have to try to ride the rank b*st*rd out
so, with that bit of wisdom and herbal terrorism, onstage i was freakin’ out
[chorus]
i want that old familiar drunken feelin’
washing over me this evenin’
i wanna be embraced like an old friend
heart is racin’, mind is reelin’
that old familiar drunken feelin’
something i can count on till the end

[verse 3]
i steeled myself, i said, “what the h*ll?” and proceeded to forget all the lines
it was endless and seemed like a fever dream, western hats and neon signs
so, in a desperate position, made the desperate decision that i’d handle this the cowboy way
which is to pour enough whiskey on the problem till it catches on fire or it goes away

shot after shot, just like i was taught, suppressed my feelings by all means
it was a mess i guess, but nonetheless a mess fairly well known to me
so, when the second set came, i was back on my game, and here’s what i’d recommend
if you think you’re gonna die ’cause you’re way too freakin’ high just drown it all in pendleton

[chorus]
i want that old familiar drunken feelin’
washing over me this evening
i wanna be embraced like an old friend
heart is racin’, mind is reelin’
that old familiar drunken feelin’
something i can count on till the end
