Story Behind The Song
6 Pack Contest .... Lyric by Ken Shasky
One of the contestants has a very cool Chicago Blues song on his site... one Contestant lost a dear friend and we all toasted to him on the internet... put all this together and modified slightly the lyric but Shasky inspired me with this one.

Lyrics
A Glass of Truth
6 Pack 2008
I know the booze it always seemed to help me
Makes the water run oh so fast
Tears in my eyes could never answer
Questions you would always (seem) to ask
You always served me thatcold glass of truth
no break in my falling
And though I stand such a distance from my youth
those cold (clean) clear words are still calling
Though it Seems I strayed so far from you
And the sweet memories from our past
Through all my storms I've honored protected
And treasured that Oh so fragile glass
Now As My memories drown out the moment
final chapter feels oh so close
Tears in my eyes may finally dare answer
Those questions with a smile and this toast
