(spoken)
I better not sit there gettin` high mellow
knocked out feelin` good
about that time I looked at the wall
at the old clock on the wall
about that time it was ten thirty then
I looked down the bar at the bartender, he said
"what do you want down there?"
(chorus)
(spoken again)
And I sat there gettin` high stoned knocked out
about that time I looked at the wall
at that old clock up there
about that time it was a quarter to two
the last call for alchohol, I said
"hey mister bartender,
what do you want?"
(chorus to end the song)Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
