Old Memories - from Canadian/American version of "Go Nutz"

Offcourse your daddy did a good job fighting Hitler
And your brother was a big shot in the Ku Klux Klan
And your wild eyed sister went gospel
And your boyfriend never came back since he met that yellow virgin in Vietnam
So you decided honey to jump off the roofs splashing the sidewalk
Moved over the hill
Well I don't mind you sitting beside me but I got a weird feeling that your memories won't pay my liquor pill

Old memories
Old memories
Old memories
Don't pay my liquor pill

Offcourse your sun ...
For some weird reason
You could only getting laid by that Arab sailor friend
Perhaps you tell me the truth 'bout the blisters on your soul
'Bout what you missed and what you stole
'Bout smoking dope and sniffing ... by the bushes you missed and all these Hollywood studs you almosted kissed

Old memories
Old memories
Old memories
Don't pay my liquor pill

I wonder what can you do since all've been done
What does it hurt since the pain is gone
I quit while you're moving you broke your high heel
What colored these eyes of the love you just could not steal*
How long did you take to steal the flag from the pole
When you're scratching your knees and blisters your sole
Your daddy said 'whatever they offer, you always pretend you need more'
And your momma said 'never ignore a liquor store'

Old memories
Old memories
Old memories
Don't pay my liquor pill
Old memories
Old memories
Old memories
Ain't gonna, ain't gonna pay my liquor pill

How long did it take you to steal that flag from the pole
When it's scratching your knees and blisters your sole
But still old memories ain't gonna pay my liquor pill

Old memories
Old memories
Old memories
Never ever pay my liquor pill
That's my blues
