lyrics

My buddy burned down his first High School
My cousin never made 2nd grade
Me, I was schooled by my uncles
Brown liquor and dirty old maids

Anytime, we could always find trouble
The law knew us by our first names
There ain't no 3 more crazy than we were
My buddy, my cousin and me

My buddy's mom lived with her dealer
So buddy stole whatever's around
My cousin made gin in his bath tub
And sold it to ladies downtown

Summertime, a '79 G10
Rolling past all of my dreams
Drinking from jars in a van by the sea
My cousin, my buddy and me

Granddad strummed a tune
As he ripped into the room
So sad it could break your heart
My cousin joined in
Singing like sin
Made a man from pain and gin
And I wrote the songs
Everyone sang along

One more time, kiss me my darling
Two more times and I'ma go home
Four's just two more, but I'll settle for three
No, death she ain't bothering me

None of us saw the truck coming
And all of us died instantly
Won't anyone lay a little gin on our grave?
My buddy, my cousin and me
Or better yet, drown my ashes at sea
My buddy, my cousin and me
