Delight
lyrics by Shelt Garner

Please give credit if you produce or perform
you’ve got potential
she said
leaving wondering what she meant
but it’s not for me to know
she’s gone now and so it goes
I’m looking over my life and wondering
how it got the way it is
take another drink of my whiskey
knowing it’s not my last
my whiskey is my friend
among the last to believe in me
take another sip of delight
it might all end in fright
take another sip of delight
it might all end in fright
I’m not saying I’m perfect
women come and go
tell me not what they want
or kiss me goodbye in the morning
not letting me have another date
take another sip of delight
it might all end in fright
take another sip of delight
it might all end in fright
(bridge)
but I’ve got my booze
always will
it keeps me warm at night
when I have to hold my own hand
but I have memories of the truth
that’s all gone and so it goes
take another sip of delight
it might all end in fright
take another sip of delight
it might all end in fright
