Goodbye Johnny Walker

Goodbye Johnny Walker Joanna Davis I swear I’m in a nightmare, I know it’s some bad dream This craving for the deadly juice, Is nothing new it seems Our life is one long quarrel, A battle no one can win Am I paying a kind of penance, For some past life of sin? I won’t put up with this forever, The smell or wavering gait If I stay with you much longer, I’ll surely be tempting my fate A soul that’s soaked with liquor, With breath to ignite a match But your handsome looks so deceiving, I naively believed you a catch! You’ll promise it’s the last time, Say you’re done… that it’s the end! But in me you see a nagging wife, While in the bottle - a comforting friend Tell me exactly how, I can win, Or compete with something so pure? What kind of psychological jargon, Would even up the score? This demon is so elusive, Someone, somewhere, please advise me, What spirits will finally convince you, To seek your desired sobriety!
