Mister Jack Daniels and Some Beer Is How I Got Here By Poefree

MISTER JACK DANIELS AND BEER IS HOW I GOT HERE I decided to take me a on a little road trip Just me and Jack Daniels so I took me a sip Mr. Daniels with a chaser I didn’t need And neither Jack nor I knew where the road would lead At mile marker number 15 I drank me some more Jack told me I needed some food so we stopped at a store Bought me some bologna, cheese and a six pack of beer Revved up my ride and threw her in gear Mr. Daniels demanded I go a lot faster And pretty soon that brown bottle became my master A nip of Jack and a sip of beer is all I required Some people might have but I never grew tired The road stretched before us as if it were our guide Exactly where we were headed we didn’t decide Mr. Daniels sat next to me insisting where I steer While in the back seat sat my silent six pack of beer Jack and the beer were having some convoluted conversation But I told them both to shut up or I’d lose my concentration I held tightly to the wheel as we sped down the road With me unawares that soon I’d be carrying a heavy load My vehicle vied with a violation of the law We wanted to go to a flick but ended up at the shore On the way home I made certain no Jack or beer spilled And then the Judge gave me five to ten for the people I killed © 2011.….Poefree
