|
OK, I'ma have to see some I.D. from everybody here, except you huh |
|
So what's it gonna be? |
|
You all look like whiskey people to me |
|
(Verse 1) |
|
Never sick of listening to your problems |
|
Your boss threatened that you're gonna lose your job then |
|
You fought with your neighbour and he called the cops man |
|
Your wife left you and she took the dog, damn! |
|
Looks like you came to the right place |
|
Take a shot just to wash away the taste |
|
We don't know your name but everybody knows your mad face |
|
Save that seat for anyone that caught a bad case |
|
Every day is overcast, pains in the lower back |
|
Bones that you didn't even know you had |
|
Not sure but you think your best friend stole your lawn mower |
|
...That would explain why he stopped coming over |
|
You ain't seen the doctor in a while |
|
Even longer for the dentist, I can tell by your smile |
|
Still making payments on a car |
|
That's sitting on a spare flat in your backyard |
|
Stacks of bills on a messy kitchen counter |
|
Ring around the blue-collar cause the hot water heater's down |
|
Here, put a couple of these down |
|
And sing the blues like they supposed to sound |
|
(Hook) |
|
Here comes a beer, catch all your tears |
|
Drink the remedy, forget about your problems |
|
Here comes a shot, lose all your thoughts |
|
Drink the remedy, forget about your problem |
|
This one's on me, fix you for free |
|
Drink the remedy, forget about everythang |
|
This one's on me, got what you need |
|
And take your medicine, you'll feel better friend |
|
{And then she said, "Did you put, did you put it in?} |
|
Wha-What? |
|
{Did you put it in yet?"} |
|
You know what? |
|
{And I was like, I was like...} |
|
You know, I'ma turn the TV on |
|
I'ma turn the TV on, I don't want to hear about this |
|
(Verse 2) |
|
Used to be you just get in the car and steer |
|
All alone, just you and them stars up there |
|
Find a highway outside of the gen-pop |
|
Turn up the music, go till the engine stops |
|
And that's life but with these guy's prices |
|
It's cheaper to just drink yourself to sleep, huh |
|
Dependency can be your best friend once you know |
|
That drugs and alcohol is all you've got that's dependable |
|
It's enough to make you wanna huff on paint again |
|
And lock you in the bathroom with the Jameson |
|
Nah man, come down here and make a friend |
|
If you do right, won't remember tonight |
|
We still open so have another cold one |
|
Until you don't recognise where you woke up |
|
And don't throw up, nah hold your liquor |
|
My tattoo gorilla be quick to eighty-six ya |
|
Now get lost in the river of smoke |
|
As it floats towards the ceiling that measures your growth |
|
Life is better with a poor memory |
|
But don't forget to leave a tip on the bar for the remedy |
|
(Hook) |
|
Ay buddy wake up, wake up |
|
Wake up, there's no sleeping at the bar man, get up |
|
It's time to settle out your tab |
|
You've had, you've had enough |
|
You've got, you've got to go home, wake up |
|
Yo, aiyyo, ay Stevie come over here man, check this guy |
|
He's still dazed? |
|
Hey buddy |
