    This song is not to glorify being a drunk. It's about the fact that I could easily become a drunk, but I choose not to.

    Story Behind the Song
    I wrote this song after sitting in a pub in Bend, Oregon with my pal Paul Moore. I came to realize that if it were not for my addiciton to responsibility, I could become a good drunk. We recorded this song musically, as a tribute to 50's rock n roll.

    Lyrics
    If I had the time I know I could be a good drunk
    Not the crying kind or a mean old punk
    I'd sit in dark bars and think about all kinds of junk

    I'd be a juke box poet I'd love words like rodeo
    Smoke too many cigarettes and every where I'd go
    Hard women would want me, even though I was a little bit vulnerable

    Oh! But if I had the time I know I could be a good drunk

    I'd be a good old boy with a big red nose
    Talk politics with my feet in repose
    And the government could take care of me, I suppose

    But my baby she's waiting for me at a place we call home
    She loves me so naughty I never have to roam
    On my way to the boys' room I think I'll stop by the telephone

    Oh! But if I had the time I know I could be a good drunk
