Lyrics for Song: Drink Up And Go Home
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Jerry Garcia
You sit there a-crying, crying in your beer
You think you got troubles, my friend listen here
Don't tell me your troubles, I've got enough of my own
Be thankful you're living, drink up and go home
I'm fresh out of prison, six years in the pen
Lost my wife and family, no one to call friend
Don't tell me your troubles, I've got enough of my own
Be thankful you're living, drink up and go home
Now there sits a blind man, so blind he can't see
Do you think he's complaining, why should you and me?
Don't tell me your troubles, I've got enough of my own
Be thankful you're living, drink up and go home
I'm fresh out of prison, six years in the pen
Lost my wife and family, no one to call friend
Don't tell me your troubles, I've got enough of my own
Be thankful you're living, drink up and go home

Jerry Garcia's "Drink Up And Go Home" stands as a quintessential example of his late-career blues-infused rock, blending his signature slide guitar work with a laid-back, improvisational spirit. Recorded during the final years of his life, the track captures the essence of the Grateful Dead's enduring legacy while highlighting Garcia's individual artistry as a solo artist. The song reflects the band's deep roots in American folk and blues traditions, showcasing Garcia's ability to weave complex melodies into a relaxed, atmospheric soundscape. It serves as a testament to his continued musical evolution and the timeless appeal of his songwriting, resonating with fans who appreciate the raw emotion and technical proficiency found in his later recordings. |
