First Time Drinking Leaves Me Sinking
Just one drink and I'd be down
Acting like a foolish clown
Since I've never had a drop
I would stumble, I would plop
Against walls and onto floors
Whacking into hard wood doors
Slurring speech and saying words
That are coming out absurd
Eating and making a mess
BBQ sauce on my dress
Making my friends laugh with glee
At this different side of me
They are glad to be seeing
As I'm getting a warm feeling
Down my leg I can't control
Embarrassed to my very soul
As the group at my friends table
Tells me of their first drunk fable
As we joke and laugh a lot
Ordering another shot
Till we're in our nice warm beds
Safe at home with throbbing heads
