Corey Smith - Drinkin' Again Lyrics
Feels like a Friday nightBut it's only Monday afternoonStill there's a party goin' on in my livin' roomIt's just me and fifth of BeamSwayin' to the sounds of old George JonesAnd it won't be long 'til the whole damn bottle's goneAnd I know it might sound sadBut to tell the truth it ain't half badI love my miseryGonna drown my blues in a sea of whiskeyI'm drinkin' againTryin' hard to hide the pain I'm inSo don't give me any shit, I know just what I'm gettin' inSure, it's a sin but I don't really give a damnI'm drinkin' againI've got no friends to callThey've all straightened up and settled downAnd they don't ever wanna hang aroundBut I guess I understandThis house ain't much for companySmells like a cesspool hereIt's stinkin' nastyAnd you might say I'm bad offBut I chose the road I strumbled acrossI picked my poisonGive me another shot of bourbonCause I'm drinkin' againTryin' hard to hide the pain I'm inSo don't give me any shit, I know just what I'm gettin inSure, it's a sin but I don't really give a damnI'm drinkin' againWell fortunately for me I find reliefWhen the world is weighin' down on meI pop a top, I take a shot, I drop a pillTurn the radio up, sit back and chillPretend my life is a bed of rosesTry not to notice all the ghostsThat are hauntin me and tauntin meAnd wantin me to cut my wristsSo they can watch me bleedAnd laugh at me, as I scream in agonyI get high for the sake of my familyCause the alcohol is all that's helpin meTo cope since I went broke and lost my hopeI kicked my girl to the curb of the roadYou know I couldn't afford to support us bothHell I'm not rich, don't have a good jobDo construction work with this dude named BobAnd he's an ass. Yells at me all the timePays minimum wage on overtimeStill he's got it made, drives an EscaladeAnd gets two hundred times what I get paidBut that's okay.I'll drink to his health and ruin mineI'll chug liquor and he can sip red wineAnd I'll be fine. Trying to find some peaceI'll quit payin' my rent and I'll break my leaseI'll live out on the streets and beg for changeCrawl in a box when it starts to rainForget my family and my friendsForget the world, ya'll, I'm drinkin' againI'm drinkin' againTryin' hard to hide the pain I'm inSo don't give me any shit, I know just what I'm gettin inSure, it's a sin, but I done lost controlAnd I'm drinkin' again y'allI'm drinkin' againI'm drinkin' again...I done said goodbyeTo the twelve-step programI'm drinkin' again...
