Drinking & Smoking

I’m drinking Colt 45 at the liquor store mall

standing out back against the wall

Waiting for the dope man to come around back

so I can get some of that good crack

As I’m out back drinking my malt liquor

I smoke crack as the night light flickers

As the night turns into day, the crack smoke burns on

so I grab my Colt 45 then I’m gone….
