near the confluence of Georgia and Florida

theres this local bar, its one of my favorites. its become my neighborhood hangout. nothing to do, head to the lounge. the barman makes sure i leave happy if the rest of the company disappoints, but it usually doesnt. ive wanted a place like this ever since i moved away from the Harrison Roadhouse in East Lansing. my bar. home away from home. if only they were open during the day. but theres another favorite 2 blocks away that could fill that void, i suppose.

lets top it off with a good drinking hymn...

Well I fell into prison about a quarter till three
Where I found in my cell a glass waiting for me
So I filled what was empty and I pulled up a stool
But he stood in the corner, the old devil wouldn't move
He said, "You drink when you're lonely."
No I drink when I want!
He said, "You'll never be sober."
Sure, why would I want that?
I only drink to be merry but unfortunately
I'm in the wrong prison cell and the wrong company
