Get There First

There ain't too many 2am back roads that I ain't drove on drunk
Theres a trail ahead behind my trunk that I just can't out run
Cursing her name, the man I became
And the flames are done burnin out

Theres a place out there for guys like me
The demons are chasing me south

Yeah I gotta get there first
Before they build a wall I can't knock down
If I'm gonna make this work
Gotta couple miles on this ground
I can see the light at the end of the bottle
Drinking my way through the end of this trouble
Trying to let the past be the past and the worst be the worst
But all I know is I gotta get there first

If the water run fast enough to flush these pills
They wouldn't be on the counter
If this whiskey glass could hold anything more
It'd be enough to drown her
Oh oh oh ill take more
And oh oh oh I gotta get myself off the floor

But I gotta get there first
Before they build a wall I can't knock down
If I'm gonna make this work
Gotta couple miles on this ground
I can see the light at the end of the bottle
Drinking my way through the end of this trouble
Trying to let the past be the past and the worst be the worst
But all I know is I gotta get there first

Gotta get there first
Get there first

Yeah I gotta get there first
Before they build a wall I can't knock down
If I'm even gonna make this work
Gotta couple miles on this ground
I can see the light at the end of the bottle
Drinking my way through the end of this trouble
Trying to let the past be the past and the worst be the worst
But all I know is I gotta get there first

Gotta get there first
Get there first
