Bucket List

I thought I made a bucket list Of all the things I didn’t want to resist I went to California and saw the ocean Travelled to New York City to see the commotion I hiked the cup and saucer trail Made it all the way up without fail Went to see Bob Dylan sing Saw Bruce Springsteen in the spring Bought a camper by the lake Made it my summer home till winter break But there’s one thing left to do And that is to get sober too I find this hardest of them all Each time I try I tend to fall I got four days now clean Drugs is what I mean I found a sponsor today And hopefully with her I’ll stay So yes there’s more I want to see But first I need to be drug free
