THE LYRICS
The ice cream man he's a hillbilly fan,
He's got seventy-eights by Hank Snow;
Walks down the street, shufflin' his feet,
To the rhythm that only he knows.
And I've seen him in so many places,
I saw him the night I was born;
In a Bourbon Street bar I received my first scar
From an old man so tattered and torn.

And the Wino and I know the pains of street singin'
Like the door-to-door salesman knows
the pains of bell ringin'
It's a strange situation,
a wild occupation,
Living my life like a song.

Well the coffee is strong
at the Cafe Du Monde,
And the donuts are too hot to touch;
But just like a fool, when those
sweet goodies cool, I ate 'til I ate way too much.
Cause I'm livin' on things that excite me,
Be they pastries or lobsters or love;
I'm just tryin' to get by being quiet and shy,
In a world full of pushin' and shove.

And the Wino and I know the pains of backbustin',
Like the farmer knows the pain of his pick-up
truck rustin'.
It's a strange situation, a wild occupation,
Living my life like a song.

Sweet Senorita, Won't you please come with me?
Back to the island, honey, back to the sea;
Back to the only place that I want to be.

And the Wino and I know the joys of the ocean,
Like a boy knows the joys of his milkshake
in motion.
It's a strange situation, a wild occupation,
Living my life like a song.

I like it!!

with flames on top!! That's the way I used to drink 151.

Okay, I have to say I found this very interesting. Because Elaine was drinking Dr. Pepper with 151 - do you mean no one else here remembers the drink called Dr. Pepper??? It is made with a beer and a shot of 151 (flaming of course) and you drop the 151 into the beer and then chug it??? My college days I guess. When Elaine mentioned the Dr. Pepper and 151 - I just starting

 

[LetsGoSteelers]

ahh yess remember those days...well not really, I believe that was one of the side effects listed on the bottle, other than it being FLAMMABLE of course!

I know I used to drink that 151. i just can't remember any of the details

 

[DisneyPinDiva]

Bob has got a JB song for every occasion!

 

[Tigger&Bubba]

I wish I knew who my secret Mickey is! I like to get stuff ahead of time. I have been finding things and saying to myself, "Well if my secret Mickey is --------------- that would be perfect for Him/Her." I have only two of my five presents so far.

I haven't even started shopping. I know if I do, the person I get will say they hate the one thing I've already bought. So has everyone signed up ???

I recall seeing a post somewhere tonight about jello shots made with everclear. wonder if jello would set up in the coolers in the room?

I think that was 3 hours YOUR time.. 4 hours MY time...

You are further along than me. I am trying to wait until I find out who it is. I know we are suppose to find out, I believe, at least a few days before. But, I did see something today that I will probably go back and get tomorrow. I think anyone would like it!!

I think I could've guessed that.

I haven't either. Gotta find out who I have first... when are we supposed to find out??

 

[winotracy]

I don't think time change quite works this way

 

[DisneyPinDiva]

I do have my scrapbook grab bag done though!

 

[bluewaves]

I think this is what I had that night

I understand then...It tastes just like Dr. Pepper...easy to catch up to ya. It's one of those drinks that you feel just fine while you are sitting down, then you get up to walk and Oh, boy....
