Coldest Beer In Town

(album: The Devil I Know - 2023)

What happens out in Vegas don't always stay in Vegas
No, sometimes it looks you up and calls your house
And you know it rains every day down in the sunshine state
But that part of the brochure got left out

And there's a lot of things this world is gonna get you to believe
But if you have to buy the first one, the second one ain't free

And you know heartache is a hard way
Of finding out how life'll let you down
And a clean break, there ain't no such thing
It took a while, but I figured out
Every love don't last forever
Every stay don't stick around
And every bar ain't got the coldest beer in town

This beer ain't worth what I'm paying
But I'm a sucker for a saying
Like "When you love someone you've got to set them free"
Man, I bought every line you sold me
Like that goodbye you told me
That you prettied up with "it's not you it's me"

And you know heartache is the hard way
Of finding out how life'll let you down
And a clean break, there ain't no such thing
It took a while, but I figured out
Every love don't last forever
Every stay don't stick around
And every bar ain't got the coldest beer in town

Light up that happy hour sign
It's just another neon lie
But, hell, whatever helps the bitter truth go down
Every love don't last forever
Every stay don't stick around
And every bar ain't got the coldest beer
They all ain't got the coldest beer in town

Heartache is the hard way
