Eric Holm - Party Like Willie Lyrics

Well Willie quit drinkin'
That shit made him crazy
He'd pawn his guitar
And get wasted and lazy
Ol' Willie'd get violent
And then catch a beatin'
Thank Goddess that chapter
Of drinkin' was fleetin'
He decided the green stuff
Could win on the merit
Cocaine sped his ego
And cigs killed his parents
So to learn from the Stranger
How to while away the hour
Gonna party like Willie,
Put my flame to the flower
Well Gram changed my journey
Redirected my pilot
No need to hurry
Slow drive in the quiet
A song for your Grama
A song a' wild careenin'
Thank Goddess these borders
Have a-limited meanin'
But I'm sorry to say it
And still it's heartbreakin'
The bottle and the needle
Stole the sound he was makin'
And it's a hard thing to know
But I am what I am
Gonna party like Willie
Blow kisses to Gram
Love you Gram!
Well it's good for the writer
The painter, the dancer
It's good for my Dad
In a fight against cancer
Gonna bike my canal
In my New Amsterdam
Gonna party like Willie
Blow kisses to Gram
Yeah party like Willie
Blow kisses to Gram
