Communion
David Ramirez
Southern Baptist church
In the heart of the suburbs taking communion
Out of tiny plastic cups
Well, they told me it was wine
But it was really just grape juice
I had my first drop of
Rum when I was twenty-one
3: 00 am in Brooklyn
And I'm drinking at The Union
Sippin' on a cheap beer
And chasing women like school kids
Well, I stood in long lines
Just to do a few lines
And I stumbled down the block as
The sun was comin' up
Well, honey you asked me where I came from
I've come from a lot of different places
Oh, but I hope that I'll end
Up right next to you
You you
You
