Wagon

from Sow & Reap by Ghostown

/

about

Another expression, to fall off the wagon, to be back on the wagon,
it's a rock n roll story about alcohol and drug abuse, kinda reminds me of The Pogues!

lyrics

Ronny what you doing when you getting home again
I'll be singing in the wind, I'll be bringing in a win
I'll be going for a lager with a laugh around the bend
If I had to start again then I'd do it all again
I said I wouldn't drink again at least till next weekend
Happened on a stag party happened on a hen
They said i'm all done in but I'm really on the mend
They said I won't get in but ill see you in the end

Ronny used to have it all
Had a party had a ball
Didn't think he'd ever fall
Never really thought at all
Cheated on his girlfriend
Lost custody of Pearl and Ben
Lost the house and bought a den
Just a place to curl up in
Can't believe she sent him packing
Pop the cork lips smacking
Out of place chase the dragon
Talking bout he's off the wagon
Started drinking on the jobby
Couldn't think his heads foggy
Feeling like a bad doggy
Come on fight back Rocky
Driving trying to clear his mind
Turn a corner, feeling fine
Didn't see the sheila shine
Hit and run left her behind
Now he's done, on the run
Feeling pain just begun
No need to tell no-one
Need a little hit of rum

Ronny what you doing when you getting home again
I'll be singing in the wind, I'll be bringing in a win
I'll be going for a lager with a laugh around the bend
If I had to start again then I'd do it all again
I said I wouldn't drink again at least till next weekend
Happened on a stag party happened on a hen
They said i'm all done in but I'm really on the mend
They said I won't get in but ill see you in the end

Louis was a post Grad
Drop out and he's breaking bad
Living in the Bach pad
Pocket money ask his dad
Naive like a bunny rabbit
Eyes looking old and haggard
Lust like a sharpened dagger
Must have a golden bag of
Stuff, or he'll go off his rag
And slag the slag who sold the skag
And told his dad, he'd rolled the jag
A bolder brag a powder bag
Messy like a haberdasher
Smoked like a Bacon rasher
Eyes glazed he chase the dragon
Definitely off the wagon
Tracy got just days to go
Had to get some tasty dough
Pasted on her face to go
On the game no place to go
Needed somewhere safe to go
One way trip to Mexico
Had to break it to Louis though
Take it like. a placebo
He was just not havent it
Had too many dabs of it
Raided the drinks cabinet
Grabbed her head and wacking it
Woke up in a pool a blood
Phone was ringing, head thuds
Hold on love I'm hanging up
Wishing they would hang him up

Ronny what you doing when you getting home again
I'll be singing in the wind, I'll be bringing in a win
I'll be going for a lager with a laugh around the bend
If I had to start again then I'd do it all again
I said I wouldn't drink again at least till next weekend
Happened on a stag party happened on a hen
They said i'm all done in but I'm really on the mend
They said I won't get in but ill see you in the end
