Lately things have been going my way consequently I've been drinking nearly every day
It's hard to keep your head up when they're knocking you down so I been making that ol' go round
Drinkin bottle shelf bourbon to ease my mind seems to work all right till closing time
but you know you're [bad word] down every night and there ain't no way you'll feel satisfied
ain't that hard to figure where to begin it's friday night so [bad word] in
Like a fool I get it anywhere I can

Well I've been having a hard time, walking a straight line
Seeing two of every single neon sign
You'll find me downtown gracefully face down
Just wishing I could feel all right

Well lately I've been walking round with eyes closed it seems like I've been headed down the wrong road
Thought I'd find my way by now but I still got lost somehow
Y'see shots fall down from heaven above, you might lose a friend you might fall in love
but you know you're [bad word] down every night and there ain't no way you'll ever feel satisfied
six in the morning till your dying day it's straight bad news and bills to pay [bad word] five o'clock you're feeling good again

Well I've been having a hard time, walking a straight line
Seeing two of every single neon sign
You'll find me downtown gracefully face down
Just wishing I could feel all right

Well i've been so high I hit my head on the ground sit up on the floor see the room spin round
but when you squint real hard through the bottom of the bottle things really don't look so bad
You dring cheap malt liquor from a forty ounce bottle fifth of bourbon some pills if you've got em
but you know you're [bad word] down every night and there ain't no way you'll ever feel satisfied
There's years of my life I don't remember at all like one proud evening I can barely recall
There was a sticky situation in a bar room bathroom stall

Well I've been having a hard time, walking a straight line
Seeing two of every single neon sign
You'll find me downtown gracefully face down
Just wishing I could feel all right
