Our oldest son received his angel wings
on July 6th 2001 at age 46.
We will miss him forever!
Don's Favorite Song
The Drunk Song
My friends down at the flop house
Want me to share my jug of wine
They tell me if I drink some more
Everything will turn out fine

I'm tempted just to take a sip
Then life won't seem so tough
But one sip would be too many
and a hundred not enough
Can I live it down tommorrow
If I live it up tonight
If I go out and drown my sorrows
Will things turn out alright?
Or will the booze and bright lights get me
Will I fly higher than a kite?
Can I live it down tommorrow
If I live it up tonight?
Why do I push the water back
And drink the booze instead
When the demon in that bottle
Goes to work in my head
The ladies whisper come live it up
We enjoy the way ya dance
In the sparkle of their sexy eyes
I can see the promise of romance
Can I live it down tommorrow
If I live it up tonight?
If I go out and drown my sorrors
Will things turn out all right?
Or will the booze and the bright lights get me
Will I fly higher than a Kite
Can I live it down tommorrow
If I live it up tonight?

"Writing this song was great therapy for me,
and Don always envisioned some famous country singer recording it."
