Ashes Of San Miguel

I spun a bottle on the map to tell us which way to go
Now we´re hellbound south into Hermosillo
Got the ashes of my best friend in a cremation jar on the shotgun seat of the car
Got the top chopped off
Got the windows down
One last tour through our happy, happy hunting grounds
Though we never made a kill, that was never really what we came down here for

So give me a sign, amigo can you tell me
Did you go down laughin´ when you finally fell
We had tales to tell and songs to sing
Did you get your horns or did they give you wings
Either works just as well
Ashes of san miguel

Well it´s a hundred and one under this fanatical sun
Them black-eyed federales drippin' sweat on their machine guns
Sayin', "...drive on slow, gringo, you ain´t as savage as you think you
Are..."
I bought a box of firecrackers and liquor to go
Vamonos, amigo para Bahía Kino
Everything´s here I got the pesos and the beer
Still ain´t no sign of your ghost

Chorus

The desert´s lovely, dark and deep
And I got no more promises left to keep
But why
Tell me why
I gotta drain a bottle dry
Before I can cry
Before I can cry over you

There´s bones on the beach
And there´s ashes in the jar
Ghosts in the air laughin' at us fools at the bar
And somewhere inside this river don´t run to the sea no more
Life is cheap here and death is rich
And he finally got you, lucky son of a bitch
And if I could do it again
I´d cry aloud at your hospital bed

Just read the words and sing along.

 

Quit fucking around @stumbler.
Give us some Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen.

Hot Rod Lincoln.

 

Seems tricky to use.

 

I would not even bring this up if it had not been pissing me off for 50 years or so. But the first time I heard this song the cultural appropriation enraged me even before we had inverted the term. Haw dare you limy mop heads.Its the Black Hills Of South Dakota. And further more if you tried that on me I would have killed your ass.

So I am surfing on yahoo and McCarthy has a story of what had inspired him And it out to be one time he was riding a scooter to his cousins house and wrecked and cut this lip. And since it was Christmas when the doctor showed up he was drunk and his cousin had to thread the needle/

And I thought I should have shot you when I had my chance and whoever put that click bait up.

But its too late, Here's the lyrics and tune. And if I've got to suffer through it I guess you do to.



"Rocky Raccoon"

Now somewhere in the Black Mountain Hills of Dakota
There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon
And one day his woman ran off with another guy
Hit young Rocky in the eye Rocky didn't like that
He said "I'm gonna get that boy"
So one day he walked into town
Booked himself a room in the local saloon

Rocky Raccoon checked into his room
Only to find Gideon's Bible
Rocky had come, equipped with a gun
To shoot off the legs of his rival

His rival, it seems, had broken his dreams
By stealing the girl of his fancy
Her name was Magill, and she called herself Lil
But everyone knew her as Nancy

Now she and her man, who called himself Dan
Were in the next room at the hoedown
Rocky burst in, and grinning a grin
He said, "Danny boy, this is a showdown"

But Daniel was hot, he drew first and shot
And Rocky collapsed in the corner, ah

D'da d'da d'da da da da
D'da d'da d'da da da da
D'da d'da d'da da d'da d'da d'da d'da
Do do do do do do

D'do d'do d'do do do do
D'do d'do d'do do do do
D'do d'do d'do do do d'do d'do d'do d'do
Do do do do do do

Now, the doctor came in, stinking of gin
And proceeded to lie on the table
He said, "Rocky, you met your match"
And Rocky said, "Doc, it's only a scratch
And I'll be better, I'll be better, Doc, as soon as I am able"

And now Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room
Only to find Gideon's Bible
Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt
To help with good Rocky's revival, ah
Oh yeah, yeah

D'do d'do d'do do do do
D'do d'do d'do do do do
D'do d'do d'do do do d'do d'do d'do d'do
Do do do do do do

D'do d'do d'do do do do, come on, Rocky boy
D'do d'do d'do do do do, come on, Rocky boy
D'do d'do d'do do do d'do d'do d'do d'do
The story of Rocky there

 

I don't know about you guys. But I feel like that Black women trying to defend President Obama, I am exhausted. Time for some soothing bedtime music,

 

I have $500 that says you don't have a "My Pillow".

 

Still waiting... maybe @Cherrypop can help me out.

 

Let me show you one. Fuck the show. Get up there and blow.

 

I tried to warn you. The world's saddest song.

 

Now wait a minute Willie. I was just getting ready to sob myself to sleep heer.

 

Especially on youtube, I don't know man.. Sometime I get the feeling someone is watching us.
