He'd get home at 5:30 |
|
Fix his drink, sit down in his chair |
|
Pick a fight with mama |
|
Complain about us kids getting in his hair |
|
At night he'd sit 'lone and smoke |
|
I'd see his frown behind his lighter's flame |
|
Now that same frown's in my mirror |
|
I got my daddy's blood inside my veins |
|
Fish swim, birds fly |
|
Daddies yell, mamas cry |
|
Old men sit and think |
|
I drink |
|
Chicken, TV, dinner |
|
6 minutes on defrost, 3 on high |
|
Beer to wash it down with then another |
|
A little whiskey on the side |
|
It's not so bad alone here |
|
It don't bother me that every night's the same |
|
I don't need another lover |
|
Hanging 'round, trying to make me change |
|
Fish swim, birds fly |
|
Lovers leave by and by |
|
Old men sit and think |
|
I drink |
|
I know what I am |
|
But I don't give a damn |
|
Fish swim, birds fly |
|
Daddies yell, mamas cry |
|
Old men sit and think |
|
I drink |
