| Leaving the bar, my breath’s as hard as regular gasoline
|
| Fire up a bone while I’m swerving home, blowing smoke like a Model T
|
| Wake up to a cup as black as tar, go to work and get beat like a mule
|
| I’m just as empty as I am poor, so I’m running on fuel
|
| I’m running on fuel, it’s all I can do
|
| To get up and make it through
|
| Coffee in the morning, whiskey in the evening
|
| Cigarettes all day long
|
| I’m running low on faith and lower on pride
|
| I’m out of love, but I still gotta drive
|
| I feel like a fool, but it’s all I can do
|
| I’m running on fuel
|
| I ain’t lazy, and I ain’t no martyr, I ain’t leaning on Uncle Sam
|
| I just drink coffee like crazy, whiskey like water, and smoke like a power plant
|
| I’m running on fuel, it’s all I can do
|
| To get up and make it through
|
| Coffee in the morning, whiskey in the evening
|
| Cigarettes all day long
|
| I’m running low on faith and lower on pride
|
| I’m out of love, but I still gotta drive
|
| I feel like a fool, but it’s all I can do
|
| I’m running on fuel
|
| Sometimes getting by seems harder than dying
|
| But something in a man just makes him keep on trying
|
| Ain’t got no wife, ain’t got no kids that I know of, it’s hard enough as it is
|
| To work all day then make it to that barstool, I’m running on fuel
|
| I’m running on fuel, it’s all I can do
|
| To get up and make it through
|
| Coffee in the morning, whiskey in the evening
|
| Cigarettes all day long
|
| I’m running low on faith and lower on pride
|
| I’m out of love, but I still gotta drive
|
| I feel like a fool, but it’s all I can do
|
| I’m running on fuel |
