Day 18- May 18th

Today I feel in love with a song. It was on one (of 5) of my brother's "Thank God I'm a Country Boy" Mixes. I think it's a really great metaphor for college life, due to the title, "Liquor & Love." I just finished my undergraduate degree, and I learned a lot. But as a college graduate I can say that two of the things I learned about the most were liquor and love.  Also today I went for a really great run by the stone arch bridge. It was awesome. But I plan on blogging about this tomorrow on my other site, so without further stalling here is a video of the song, with lyrics posted below.

When I was just a young boy
I must have been nine or ten
My daddy gave me a sip of his whiskey
I swore I wouldn’t do that again

But love I didn’t know about
Well I figured I was gonna find out

Oh, Liquor, Liquor and Love
Are heating me up
Are cooling me down, down, down
Oh, Liquor it’ll soothe your heart,
But then love is gonna spin your head around.

As I grew to be a young man
I learned the taste of wine
But all I seemed to learn about love was
It had a lot to do with crying

Love it’s a curious thing
It can run and come back again

Oh, Liquor, Liquor and Love
Are heating me up
Are cooling me down, down, down
Oh, Liquor it’ll soothe your heart,
But then love is gonna spin your head around, head around

If I could store love in a bottle
And keep liquor down in my soul
Maybe I could keep myself together
While I blow a .10

But love ain’t the kind of thing
You can store on a shelf in spring

Oh, Liquor, Liquor and Love
Are heating me up
Are cooling me down, down, down
Oh, Liquor it’ll soothe your heart,
But then love is gonna spin your head around

(Repeat chorus)

Liquor and Love….
