Good Ole Hurtin' Song

(альбом: Greetings From South Carolina - 1983)

This ole beer gut I got don't get no smaller
If I thought it'd do any good I'd go ahead and call her
I've been drinking up my pain since she's been gone
For every fool there's a good boss too
And the same ole sad, sad song

That beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurting song
Drink a few with a song or two, it never takes me long
As long as I got the money, I'll stay where I belong
Yeah, that beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurting song

My friends keep telling me, boy you oughta quit it
But they ain't the ones that have to drink to forget it
And forgetting don't come easy when you're sober and all alone
So I pop my tops and play the jukebox and the pain is gone

That beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurting song
Drink a few with a song or two, it never takes me long
And as long as I got the money, I'll stay where I belong
Yeah, that beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurting song
Yeah, that beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurting song
