Drowning Man

[Verse 1]

Don't tell me about no beach

Don't wanna hear about your mountain

How the good life is a peach

You drink your sunsets from a fountain

No, I don't wanna think about it

Save your breath, I don't wanna hear about it

[Chorus]

I just wanna get right down at the firelight

Let my baby sing "Hold Me Tight"

You honky-tonk nighttime man

Drink away this crazy world

Hold tight to a longneck-holdin' girl

Won't you give it all boys with a fed-up give a damn

Bartender, here's a fifty

Pour some whiskey on this drowning man

[Verse 2]

We put the smoke in the stack

Put the seed in the ground

While Lady Liberty turns her back

And Uncle Sam just turns around

No, I don't wanna think about it

Oh, tonight I don't wanna think about it

[Chorus]

I just wanna get right down at the firelight

Let my baby sing "Hold Me Tight"

You honky-tonk nighttime man

Drink away this crazy world

Hold tight to a longneck-holdin' girl

Won't you give it all boys with a fed-up give a damn

Bartender, if you're with me

Pour some whiskey on this drowning man

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

I just wanna get right down at the firelight

Let my baby sing "Hold Me Tight"

You honky-tonk nighttime man"

Drink away this crazy world

Hold tight to a longneck-holdin' girl

Won't you give it all boys with a fed-up give a damn

Bartender, if you're with me

Pour some whiskey on this drowning man

[Outro]

Don't tell me about no beach

Don't wanna hear about your mountain

How the good life is a peach

Drink your sunsets from a fountain

No, I don't wanna hear about it

Save your breath, I don't wanna hear about it
