Stop And Drink

(album: Cold Beer Conversation - 2015)

Weatherman said, "It's 105."
Is it global warming, I'm trying to decide
Little stuff like that will make you stop and drink
Is there life on Mars, the question begs
What came first, the chicken or the egg?
Little stuff like that will make you stop and drink

It'll make you stop
Go inside of your favorite bar
Sit a while on a tall bar stool
And think and think and think
No, you don't need a big excuse
To pop a top and cut it loose
Little stuff like that will make you stop and drink

I recall a buddy of mine
He dropped dead when he was only 49
Little stuff like that will make you stop and drink
He left all his money behind
His best friend married his widow wife
Little stuff like that will make you stop and drink

It'll make you stop
Go inside of your favorite bar
Sit a while on a tall bar stool
And think and think and think
No, you don't need a big excuse
To pop a top and cut it loose
Little stuff like that will make you stop and drink

You know the common man can't get a break
Wall Street cheats and guess who pays?
Little stuff like that will make you stop and drink
You're headed home, the work day is done
Neon sign flashing 2-for-1
Little stuff like that will make you stop and drink

It'll make you stop
Go inside of your favorite bar
Sit a while on a tall bar stool
And think and think and think
No, you don't need a big excuse
To pop a top and cut it loose
Little stuff like that will make you stop and drink

Yeah, little stuff like that will make you stop and drink
