mans ruin

Cadillacs and Cheap Champagne
Good whiskey and better cocain
Dank weed and a womans love
Hell, even God above

Every man has a ruin
No matter what yer doinâ€™
Just so happens to be
Yer a ruin to me

Shootin dice and playin cards
Fast women and faster cars
Cut yourself and watch it bleed
Oh Mama, what you need?

Every man has a ruin
No matter what yer doinâ€™
Just so happens to be
Yer a ruin to me

Amphetamines and a bottle of pills
Find that thrill that kills
Constantly on the run
soon one day youâ€™ll be done

Every man has a ruin
No matter what yer doinâ€™
Just so happens to be
Yer a ruin to me

Cadillacs and Cheap Champagne
Good whiskey and better cocain
Dank weed and a womans love
Hell, even God above

Yer my ruin...
Yer my ruin...
Yer my ruin...

You need to learn how to play guitar. You'd be a good songwriter - seriously, that's really good.

I like the meter...just not all that into rhyming everything. But, I'd agree...songwriter material for sure. I know that is what Garr was all about, way back when. He had stacks and stacks of "poetry" and after we started putting together riffs, he'd go through that stuff and find something that matched tempo or feeling and make it work...
