On The Rocks

Indeed, those trying times were tough
dividing single portions thrice
but we always seemed to have enough

acquiring contentment on the cuff
we never thought about the price
indeed those trying times were tough

for folks that didn't have much stuff
depending on their spirits to suffice
but we always seemed to have enough

to make it through when things were rough
and spurn the tempting wink of vice
indeed those trying times were tough

when living was a constant scuff
and future prospects weren't so nice
but we always seemed to have enough.

When Dad departed grim and gruff
your love turned as cold as your vodka on ice,
indeed those trying times were tough
but we always seemed to have enough.
