twas the night before x mas ,
we were all in the club,
providing a meeting
instead of a pub.
the ashtrays were clean
and the coffee was made.
the basic texts were out,
and we had all prayed..
when out in the lot,
there arose such a clatter,
we jumped from the table
to see what was a matter.
the chair with his N/A book
and i with my smokes,
headed outside and
found these two blokes.
they came inside,
and they sat a a table,
and said that they'd chair,
as soon as they're able.
to start with, they said,
its more than not using
or drinking.
it's doing your best to
fix your wrong thinking.
'let go and let GOD'
and those slogans we used
help keep the newcomer from
getting too confused.
step one is a start,
they said we sould know
and after step two ,
we'll be all aglow.
we make a decision when we get step three;
step four is real tough, we all could agree,
step five is the one where we let it all out,
step six and seven ,
we;re left with no doubt,
we get step eight, and we make our long list
and then with step nine , we have to persist.
when you're on step nine, our promises ring true.
we didn't just get that, out of the blue.
after that, it's on with the rest
that we must do each day,to be our best.
they put on their coats and got ready to leave
a pretty good end, for this
christmas eve...
as to his name , we only could guess ok?
but i'm pretty darn sure it was jimmy k.
the two men hopped in a red'35 ford,
as they pulled out, one of them roared;
we leave this message , for you , our brothers
and sisters.
TRUST GOD, CLEAN HOUSE, BE OF SERVICE TO OTHERS..
FOR ALL OF THE PEOPLE WE WANT TO SAY..
HAVE A NICE HOLIDAY,
DON'T DRINK OR USE.... JUST FOR TODAY...
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL
AS THE DROVE AWAY.............
