CHRISTENED BY WHISKEY

CHRISTENED  BY  WHISKEY

When I was just a little child,
I was always sort of wild,
and no one seemed to know just why !
But, the reason for all of this,
and the reason for my bliss,
When I was just a baby, I got high !

Now there was a certain lad,
He was always "sort of" bad,
and he grew up to have quite a "name."
But, it all started when,
He mixed some whiskey with some Gin,
and into my baptismal waters, here it came !

Well, no one knew the reason,
that he performed this act of treason,
But, today, it still affects my mind !
For while my head was turned to the south,
They dropped this whiskey into my mouth, 
and it was then and there that I began to unwind !

Well, I've raised "Hell" ever since,
like I've never had any sense,
and I owe this little "bastard" all my glee,
For that is when it all got started,
I knew that when I first farted,
Because I am a "stinker," don't you see?
