I put some whiskey into my whiskey
I put some heartbreak into my heart
I put my boots on that ole dance floor
I put three rounds Lord, in my 44
I love the girl, she was my sunshine
Her name was Eleanor Caroline
She got fast, with a friend of mine
At the dance hall Lord, on the county line
I put some whiskey into my whiskey
I put some heartbreak into my heart
I make my way across that ole dance floor
And put three rounds Lord, in my Eleanor

I filled my glass with Uncle Jack
I lay my skin, my sunday black
I'll make my bed on them railroad tracks
I'll leave this world lord and I won't look back
And I put some whiskey into my whiskey
I put some heartbreak into my heart
I put my boots on that ole dance floor
I put three rounds Lord, in my Eleanor

No, no don't cry.
See the tree, how big it's grown, and when the singer from "Belly" dies she'll "Feed The Tree".
See? It's like the circle of life, and sh!t.

I took it as quite poetic, Jungian synchronicity, the simultaneous posting of Eddie Cochran and Skynyrd earlier.
Here's another swell one from some nice, young English lads:
"Lucky Man" - Emerson, Lake, and Palmer
