    hey, droopy.

    last night I went to the gym and cops in ft. worth was on, and I thought of you.

    downtown looks cool and old west-y.


By droopy on Thursday, November 9, 2000 - 06:48 pm:

    is cops still on? my cousin "soapy" has been on cops in fort worth twice. not as a criminal, which surprised me.

    i think you might've seen the northside - the stockyards area, which really isn't downtown. either that or downtown just looks more old west-y to your pacific coast eyes than they do to mine.

    "one bourbon, one scotch, one beer"

    one bourbon, one scotch, one beer
    one bourbon, one scotch, one beer
    hey mister bartender, come here
    i want a drink and i want it now

    my baby she gone, she been gone two night
    i ain't seen my baby since night before last

    one bourbon, one scotch, one beer

    and then i sit here
    gettin' high
    mellow
    knocked out
    feelin' good
    and by the time
    i looked on the wall
    by that time
    it was ten thirty daddy
    i looked down the bar
    at the bartender
    he said "now what you want, droopy?"

    one bourbon, one scotch, one beer

    well my baby she gone she been gone two night
    i ain't seen my baby since night before last
    i wanna get drunk till i'm off my mind

    one bourbon, one scotch, one beer

    and i sat there
    gettin' high
    stoned
    knocked out
    and by the time
    i looked on the wall
    at the old clock again
    and by that time
    'twas quarter to two
    last call
    for alcohol
    i said, "hey mister bartender!"

    "well, what do you want?"

    one bourbon, one scotch, one beer
    one bourbon, one scotch, one beer
    one bourbon, one scotch, one beer

    you're right, it probably wasn't downtown. because I saw some tall buildings at the start of the show, and that wasn't what I saw later.

    it looked like an intersection with some taverns or something, and the buildings looked like they were out of westerns, with false fronts and maybe even wooden porches.

    I could be misremembering, though. and it was shot at night.

    stockyards, baby - definitely. home of the white elepant saloon. one of the 100 best bars in america, i've heard.
