Great old jukebox tune.

Grab a beer and maybe a shot and tell the bartender to give you some Beer Nuts and maybe a Blind Robin. You spotted them sitting on the back bar next to the display cards of pocket combs and nail clippers. Cigarette machine takes 35 cents and the matchbook from the bartender says "The Easy Spot" but for some reason your eyes can't make out the rest. Maybe another round. Maybe she'll answer the phone.

although I drank import beer and liked it I still liked the places that had domestic beer on tap and colder than Siberia. When I would get done at the end of a day of working in the sun and my head and face are on fire there was nothing better than slamming a couple of mugs of that ice cold beer as fast as I could.
