There's a Tear In My Beer

I have grown fond of a low-on-the-dial radio station that plays "Texas blues and country." (They also play two hours of Rat Pack on Saturdays so don't judge ...). Sometimes it is great stuff. Other times, the typical country song about beer, whiskey, blondes, regret and tears. When one such song came on last night while driving home I went to change the dial but Sam said, "I wanna hear the song about bears. Leave it on the song about the bears!"

The song was "When Drunks Go Bad" but with the requisite twang it sounded somewhat like "When Drunks Go BAY-RRRRS." There we are cruising southbound on the Dallas North Tollway with Sam singing "When Drunks Go BAY-RRRRS!"
