    Story Behind the Song
    Like most the stuff I write, this one came about jamming on a Fender Telecaster. The lyrics came after the music was recorded. It is basically a loose autobiographical take on my life when I was younger.

    Lyrics
    I can't believe the state of mind I'm in
    It seems my learning curve turned out to be a danged hairpin
    Too many late nights steppin' out with long tall Sally - Drinkin' George Dickle whiskey
    fightin' in the alleys
    It's no wonder they say you're throwin'your whole danged life away

    (CHORUS 1) Honky Tonkin'- Till closin' time
    Double shots - and Mad Dog wine
    Two steppin' - till my feet turn blue
    Just playin' the fool

    Just a juke joint joyride, pretendin' I got money to burn
    Can barely hold a job but still I spend more money than I earn
    But when I take the stage I leave nobody guessin', playin' guitars loud is my one and only blessin'
    It's no wonder they say you're throwin' your whole danged life away

    (CHORUS 2) I like rockin'- all thru the night
    Play my chops - this band's so tight
    Don't play covers - all these riffs are mine
    lay it on the line

    (gratuitous guitar solo)

    The moral of the story ain't that hard
    don't ever go out and buy your son an electric guitar
    He's bound to forget about all the golden rules, too danged busy with his band to do his studies at school
    You'll be rueing the day you helped him throw his life away
    (REPEAT CHORUS 1)
