Away In A Manger Contest Re Run Sponsored

Away at the near bar No cheap wine for me Red Cabernet in glass Until full of glee Dancing on the dance floor With Tom, Dick, Harry Tom fell lost his Toupee Laid said Hail Mary Busy night bar was full Tom climbs on the bar Next thing he does striptease Bills tossed in a jar

A party and everybody having fun. A bar to be at on a Saturday night. O' yes I can remember times like that. God bless.
