This tune was originally written for The Mocking Birds, but never got recorded. The Bills do right by it. Very popular at our recent New England Brewing gig.

Lyrics:

I recall a September night
when the band was hot, we were super tight
we were cool
Later on we had drinks with Sean
we made no sense we were rambling on
a barroom full of simple fools

We were all — Fall Down Drunk
we sure had a real good time.

Late October at a funeral wake
I was very brave I stood up straight
I successfully did not grieve
Late that night I found myself
a laughing fool with a tear-stained face
crawling through the frozen leaves

I got all — Fall Down Drunk
I think it saved my life

Pass the potatoes and carve the roast
fill your glass
for a Thanksgiving toast
let’s celebrate the way we live
the more we have the more thanks we ought to give

Let’s get all — Fall Down Drunk
And here comes Christmas time!
