Story Behind The Song
No story really, just a sober person's perspective on being drunk. Kind of a joke, but sung seriously... to make it tounge-in-cheek.
Song Description
This song is very tounge-in-cheek. It pokes fun at the cloudiness of being drunk. Was designed to feel like a saloon back in the cowboy days.

Lyrics
I ask myself
every single day
I ask myself now darlin
how?d I get this way?
And in the night
I chase away my dreams
?cuz I just want to lay there, honey
thinkin? nothing
unh- hunh
Once in a while
I sit down and think
and every night I get there darlin
I pour myself I drink
Bridge:
I just wanna know
do my colors show?
and I just wanna find out baby
where I?m gonna go
unh- hunh
Where I?m gonna go... gonna go
I?m now on my way
tryin? to find the place
And every time I get there honey
I don?t want to stay!
ooohhh
Raise ?em up, I said raise ?em up!
Raise ?em up, and wash them down!
