Colorado Cool-Aid - Johnny Paycheck

I was sittin' in this beer

Joint down in Houston Texas

Was drinkin' Colorado Kool-Aid

And talkin' to some Mexicans

An' we was what's that you say

What's Colorado Kool-Aid

Well it's a can of Coors brewed

From a mountain stream

It'll set you head on fire

And make your kidneys scream

Oh it sure is fine

Yeah we was havin' ourselves

One of them real good times

But you know

Every beer joint that you've everbeen in

Some big

Mean drunk who just ain't got no friend

Sure enough

He wants to fight

Yeah he's gonna whip everything in sight

Well he took him a big swallow of beer

And he walked over

And spit in my Mexican friends ear

Sure enough

That made my buddie real mad

That's somethin' like he ain't never had

Well sir he pulled out a big

Long switch blade knife;

Quick as a whistle he began to slice

An that big mean drunk stood back

His face full of tears

Lookin' down at the floor

An' one of his ears

Ha he cut that thing off even with the sideburns

You might say the little Mexican fella

He just didn't give a durn

But he was a gentleman about it

An' bent over and with a half way grin

Picked it up and handed it back to him

He said: "Now big man

You get the urge to spit a little beer

"Just open up your hand there

And spit it in your own ear

"Won't be no trouble that way

" That's what I heard him say

And I said: "Barmaid

Set us up a round of that Colorado Kool-Aid

"An while you're up their

Bring this big fella

Here a box of Band aids "

Now let me tell you:

If you're ever ridin' down in south of Texas

Decide to stop an' drink some Colorado Kool-Aid

An' maybe talk to some Mexicans

An' you get the urge to get a little tough

Better make damn sure

You got your knife proof ear-muff

Hey ain't that right big man

I said ain't that right big man

Ah hell he can't hear

Not on this side anyway

He ain't got no ear

Hey barmaid bring us all a big

Tall glass of that Colorado Kool-Aid

How about it

How you doin' big man

Still got your ear there in your hand
