Thank you Lt Col Charlie Brown for sharing "The More I Drink" performed by Blake Shelton from 2009.
Like many of us, when I enlisted in 1974 the U.S. Army encouraged drinking alcohol and smoking cigarettes. That did not change until the early sometime after General John Adams Wickham Jr. became Chief of Staff, Army (23 Jul 1983 - 23 Jun 1987)
I drank beet, wine, hard liquor from 1972 until about 1990 [Two article 15s [company grade 1975 and General grade 1982] behind bars a few times early on :-)]
By God's grace I survived but not unscathed.
The More I Drink
Blake Shelton
Lyrics
He was sittin' at the bar, sippin' on a regular Coke
We were drinkin' and smokin' and makin' him the butt of our jokes
We all said, "Man, what happened to you? Why can't you just have a few?"
He said, "I would if I could, but it's probably best that I don't."
'Cause the more I drink, the more I drink
Yeah, I'm the world's greatest lover and a dancin' machine
I get loud, I get proud, and it gets worse
Well, if I have one, I'll have thirteen
Naw, there ain't no in-between
'Cause the more I drink, the more I drink
A couple of cold ones, and somebody hands me a shot
Hell, even buck-tooth and bow-legged women start lookin' hot
And pretty soon I'm bummin' cigarettes, and sweet talkin' some big brunette
Yeah, once…"
