Lyrics

Keep Swinging

[Verse 1]

You got drunk more so than you'd ever been

You hailed a cab but passed out cold

Before you told the driver where to go

And so he drove you around Chicago

[Verse 2]

You woke up sicker than you'd ever been

You threw up and shit the bed

And there was no one there to clean you up

And the room was spinning all around

[Chorus]

Make a fist and take a deep breath

Close your eyes and count to ten

Just keep swinging 'til you're over it

[Verse 3]

The mess you left had got you feeling pretty bad, but

She is a maid, I guess that's what she get's paid for

[Chorus]

Make a fist and take a deep breath

Close your eyes and count to ten

Just keep swinging 'til you're over it
