When I Am Gone

(album: Acoustic Monday Album - 2019)

Ain't no telling when your time is up
So everybody with me, lift your cup
For tomorrow we may all be dead
That's what a dead wise man said
The moment right before the lightning struck

Drink one for the ones who drank too much
Smoke one for the ones who smoked before us
Pour some liquor out for those who passed on
And roll one up for me when I am gone

Before mankind could even pitch a tent
He discovered how the alcohol ferments
And for the next ten thousand years
He drank his liquors, wines, and beers
Let's honor him for all the time he spent
When tribal cavemen wanted to get high
There wasn't a dispensary nearby
Before he found that OG kush
He smoked every shrub, tree, and bush
Let's not forget his sacrifice as I

Drink one for the ones who drank too much
Smoke one for the ones who smoked before us
Pour some liquor out for those who passed on
And roll one up for me when I am gone

Every day I'm driving in my car
Let's knock on wood, I hope I make it far
I'm not just knocking for myself
I'm also knocking for the health
Of the dude who drives my Lyft home from the bar
They say they making new technology
That'll make us all live for eternity
Well, if that stuff really exists
Please put me on the waiting list
If I still die, then roll one up for me

Drink one for the ones who drank too much
Smoke one for the ones who smoked before us
Pour some liquor out for those who passed on
And roll one up for me when I am gone
Drink one for the ones who drank too much
Smoke one for the ones who smoked before us
Pour some liquor out for those who passed on
And roll one up for me when I am gone
Roll one up for me when I am gone
Roll one up for me when I am gone

That airplane going by is metaphorical
