Alcohol And Pills

Fred Elgersma

Hank Williams, he came up, from Montgomery

With a heart full of hard-luck country songs

But Nashville, Tennessee, they didn't Understand him because he did things

Differently then the way they were done

but when he finally made it to the Grand Ole Opry.
.. he made it stand still.

He ended up on alcohol and pills

Evil Presely, he came up from Jackson

With a brand new way of singing

A brand new way of dancing

And even from the waist up, he gave the world

A thrill... he ended up on alcohol and pills

Alcohol and pills

It's a crying shame

you'd think they might have been happy

with the glory and the fame

the fame don't take away the pain

it just pays the bills

and you wind up on alcohol and pills

Janis Joplin, she was a wild and reckless

Then there was Gram Parsons, then there was Jimmy Hendrix.

The story just goes on and on.

I guess it always will... they ened up on Alcohol and pills

Alcohol and pills

It's a crying shame

You'd think they might have been happy

With the glory and the fame

The fame don't take away the pain

It just pays hte bills

And you wind up on alchol and pills

Sometimes somebody won't wake up one day

Sometimes it's a heart attack

Sometimes, they won't say

When they pulled poor old Hank Williams

Out of that Cadillac Coupe de Ville

He ended up on alcohol and pills

Alcohol and pills

It's a crying shame

You'd think they might have been happy

With the glory and the fame

The fame don't take away

It just pays the bills

And you wind up on alcohol and pills

... on alcohol and pills
