Manic Monday word for the day is deal.
This is what I had to deal with today.
The Toothache Blues
(insert "da DA da da DAH" after each line of verse)
Developed a toothache just last Friday night.
Up North at the River, no dentist in sight.
I worked at the pain with both whiskey and wine
Just hopin' my ache would soon ease over time.
but came home last night with my tooth all a swellin
woke up this morning my cheek like a melon
Oh I got the toothache blues
hutin so badly I can't even snooze
don't think I can handle anymore booze
Oh yeah I got the toothache blues.
I went to the dentist just begging for ease
He reached for my hand and he gave it a squeeze.
Took out his needles and took out his drill
Looked at me sideways and said "now lie still"
Stretched my mouth open, so wider than wide
A river of drool running down on the side
Oh I got the toothache blues
hutin so badly I can't even snooze
don't think I can handle anymore booze
Oh yeah I got the toothache blues.
My lips are all numb and my smile is all crooked
my tongue feels real big and I ain't nice to look at
but the pain is all gone and I got me some pills
got me a tv, warm blanket for chills.
I know by tomorrow my mouth will be swell
and I'll have survived this toothache from hell.
Oh I got the toothache blues
hutin so badly I can't even snooze
don't think I can handle anymore booze
Oh yeah I got the toothache blues.
How's your Monday?

Toothaches are the suck.
BTW - check my place tomorrow. You have been tagged.
What is the deal with a toothache starting on a Friday? Have you ever heard of anyone with a toothache that started on a Monday?
Hope you feel better soon, thanks for stopping by.
Travic, they are! I'll stop by tomorrow. :-)

Oh pharmacist, I'll have what she's having.
Fortunately I read this song today and not 3 days ago, lol ! Because I suffered the same. Awful ! Now it's over thanks to antibiotics !
LOL, V. I wish I could say it's the drugs, but all i got is damn Ibuprofen. Just punch drunk from pain.
Gattina I am glad it is over for you. Must be toothache season, Bond over at Bond's couch had one too.
Oh, dear - hope you get it fixed, although that's not a fun prospect either...
Hi Lisa. Sorry to hear 'bout the toothache. However, it inspired you to do some really creative writing. Very well done!!! Hope you feel better soon.
People say I gots the teeth of a young dawg... they're real clean and hardly any brown stuff on 'em. Bark, Whoof!
Thanks Stine! I don't mind the work as long as there is no more pain. :-)
Thanks Imma!
Very creative! I'm so sorry about your toothache. They are absolutely dreadful!
Thanks Sophia, yes they are!
Love it!!! Love it!!!
Hope your pain is gone... ;)
