Maverick Drummer and Baffled Pianist

Another one of those gigs.  Ventured forth with the Lookalike song - big hit, convulsive beer-spillage among the befuddled fans.  But I know they liked it.  Almost singing along, making up their own words since they don't yet know the originals.  I managed to skewer my own bottle of the golden stuff before it attached itself to the free hand of the drummer.  Did a few hand-me-down blues ditties with the old Epiphone strings taking a battering.  Spent the rest of the evening trying to bend them in tune.  Didn't matter.  We were all on our seventh round by then and the palm-slapping became ecstatic.

So, readers, what would you like?  Anybody out there need some lyrics for their band?  Sometimes they come with chord structures and tunes, if you're lucky.
