(Michael Peterson/Michael Puryear/Buddy Brook)

There''s a party in my honor, at my house tonight
A few of my ol'' drinking buddies will be droppin'' by
They''ll come to celebrate my graduation
After eight long years, of higher education

So here''s to me
I finally passed the bar
As I drove by that ol'' honky tonk
Still tuggin at my heart
I never dreamed that neon night school
Would ever be so hard
I can''t believe at last
I finally passed the bar

I''ve got an awful lot of memories, that I can''t recall
But I know from those old stories
I must have had a ball
With the money that I spent on my tuition
(What would you do hoss)
Well I could retire and spend the rest of my life fishin''
(Oh well)

Here''s to me
I finally passed the bar
As I drove by that ol'' honky tonk
Still tuggin at my heart
I never dreamed that neon night school
Would ever be so hard
I can''t believe at last
I finally passed the bar

I was first in my class
To the bottom of a glass
But it was killin'' me
I used to get loaded
But now I''ve been voted
Most likely to succeed

Here''s to me
I finally passed the bar
As I drove by that ol'' honky tonk
Still tuggin at my heart
I never dreamed that neon night school
Would ever be so hard
I can''t believe at last
I finally passed the bar
I can''t believe at last

I finally passed the bar
