Firewater |
| You got drunk last night… you swear you saw the devil |
| But don’t you know firewater seeks its own level |
| Life is a cyclone… death is but a breeze |
| Will you die on your feet… or will you live on your knees? |
| Guitar strummin'… wine overflowin' |
| They say you have it comin'… if you never got it goin' |
| You blame it on your baby that your heart was broke in half |
| Well I can see you just been cryin'… so you don’t have to laugh |
| There ain’t nothing sacred… you can beg or steal or borrow |
| When you’re swimmin' in self pity… you’ll be drownin' in your sorrow |
| You got drunk last night… you swear you saw the devil |
| But don’t you know firewater seeks its own level |
| Your clothes fit fine and your hair looks great |
| You got time you can waste… but no time to wait |
| You’re drownin' me in the waves your brain sent |
| It ain’t love anymore… it’s just entertainment |
| If the devil made you do it… well go for it honey |
| Just be sure you give him a run for his money |
| You can kill the bottle… there ain’t no murder mystery |
| There’s a little bit left… but all the rest is natural history |
| You got drunk last night… you swear you saw the devil |
| Don’t you know firewater seeks its own level |
| Perched on your back was a loud mouth vulture |
| Y’all were talkin' back and forth about the counter-counter culture |
| Smoke was hangin' heavy… everybody had to breathe it |
| Your hands were on the table but your thoughts were underneath it |
| Everybody got stoned… and when the night was over |
| The wildest one there was cold stone sober |
| But you and all the rest… well your eyes gottin' muddy |
| 'Cause the bartender knows… he’s gotta to serve somebody |
| You got drunk last night… you swear you saw the devil |
| But don’t you know firewater seeks its own level |
| You got drunk last night… you swear you saw the devil |
| But don’t you know firewater seeks its own level |
