Corea Wet Jam

Rick Holder and Paddy McLean are in town

You can hear'em across the town borders

And their stories jump up as the whiskey runs down

As the day fades, the whiskey runs further

Rick Holder says "Paddy remember that day

When you dropped the great bomb, I still see ya"

I can still smell burned flesh of the war smoke of grey

40 fuckin' years gone since Corea

I was wearin' boots and my green uniform

Fightin' communists for justice and fun

Lovely lady will you join me for the night

I've grown older but my heart's still on run

But girl you can't break my heart

I still love my Bloody Mary

Waitress, over here

Two more pints of beer

Join me for a pee, McLean you bastard

McLean woke up in the bed of his own

Watch his bed partner become a bottle

He throws up, feels his head like the weight of a stone

In his ears he hears tambourine rattle

He opened a bottle and searched for his mouth

Feel the morning booze slides through his entrails

And the poison makes Paddy's dreams head for the south

He's mistreated by peace in his own jail

I remember when we came back from the war

Welcome-party in a whiskey store

Now the kids  don't even see you anymore

Mother earth became a fat peace whore

Feel it's time to leave the show

Jesus plug me down with bullets

I don't want to think

Give me one more drink

And you'll make this day dye faster
