Contentment Blues Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Mitch Cumstein 

Cover art for Contentment Blues lyrics by Widespread Panic

Panic's got the girlies in the coupe Like the Colonol's got the chicken.

Song is about Cocaine which is known in athens as chicken. It's a code word that was first used at The Taco Stand and later the Georgia Bar. You'd order a chalupa and a two piece chicken con columbia. Get a greasy slab of trapdoor mexican and two bindles.

Chicken means childhood memories, feelings of peace and unadulterated happiness.
