Don't Overdrink It

(album: The Long Road Home - 2017)

I can hear that buzz coming a mile away
I've got a one way ticket, it's been a long damn day
Coming over the bar and picking up steam
Better set it down before it makes a wreck out of me
If there too long I'm gonna finish of the whole damn thing

Don't overdrink it, you know that's what I'm thinking
When you try to get it all in one night
That shit never works out right
Don't overdrink it, that ship's gonna come in sinking
It'll keep your hope afloat
If you have just enough to let it go
But don't overdrink it

I know that monkey's got a hold on your back
It's the middle of the month and that paycheck ain't gonna last
For a lot of us when we twist that top and pour one up man it's hard to stop
I know whiskey ain't the answer but it's damn sure worth a shot

Don't overdrink it, you know that's what I'm thinking
When you try to get it all in one night
That shit never works out right
Don't overdrink it, that ship's gonna come in sinking
It'll keep your hope afloat
If you have just enough to let it go
But don't overdrink it

No tequila ain't ever paid the rent
And the bourbon knows where my money went
The beer won't steer when I can't drive
And this car of mine won't run on shine
I've though about this too long
Now the whole damn bottle's gone

I overdrank it, don't know what I was thinking
I tried to get it all in one night but I'm sure it's gonna be alright
I overdrank it, got lost in the glasses clanking
All I know is my hope's afloat and I've had way more than I know, I know, I know
I overdrank it
