Ill Wind lyrics
There's a party in my honor at my house, tonight
A few of my ol' drinking buddies will be droppin' by
They'll come to celebrate my graduation
After eight long years of higher education
Here's to me, I finally passed the bar
As I drove by that ol' honky tonk still tuggin' at my heart
I never dreamed that neon night school would ever be so hard
I can't believe at last, I finally passed the bar
I've got an awful lot of memories that I can't recall
But I know from those old stories, I must have had a ball
Well, with the money that I spent on my tuition
What would you do hoss?
Well, I could retire and spend the rest of my life fishin', oh well
Here's to me, I finally passed the bar
As I drove by that ol' honky tonk still tuggin' at my heart
I never dreamed that neon night school would ever be so hard
I can't believe at last, I finally passed the bar
I was first in my class to the bottom of a glass
But it was killin' me, tell me about it
I used to get loaded
But now I've been voted most likely to succeed
Here's to me, I finally passed the bar
As I drove by that ol' honky tonk still tuggin' at my heart
I never dreamed that neon night school would ever be so hard
Well, I can't believe at last, I finally passed the bar
I can't believe at last, I finally passed the bar
Congratulations
