[Verse 1]
Persuaded, paraded, inebriated, in doubt
Still aware of everything life carries on without
'Cause there's one too many faces with dollar sign smiles
I gotta find the shortest path to the bar for a while
[Chorus]
A long way from happiness
In a three-hour-away town
Whiskey bottle over Jesus
Not forever, just for now
Not forever, but just for now
[Verse 2]
Well, there's a trouble around, it's never far away
The same trouble's been around for a life and a day
Oh, I can't forget the sound 'cause it's here to stay
The sound of people chasing money and money getting away
[Chorus]
A long way from happiness
In a three-hour-away town
Whiskey bottle over Jesus
Not forever, just for now
Not forever, but just for now
[Verse 3]
Well, in between the dirt, disgust there must be
Some air to breathe and something to believe
Well, "Liquor and Guns" the sign says quite plain
Somehow life goes on in a place so insane
[Chorus]
A long way from happiness
In a three-hour-away town
Whiskey bottle over Jesus
Not forever, but just for now
Not forever, but just for now
