I'm drinkin' up, and I'm drinkin' down
I'm drinkin' all around
I've been in every honky tonk
in this damn ol' town
I know where to go late at night
The place to go late at night
The place to go when I want a fight
I know where the red lights burn so bright
But there's a girl sittin' waitin' for me
Sayin' she's gonna set me free
If i could just get my head out of the bottle
Well i keep drinkin' my life away
The devil said now son, you gotta pay
You're southern boy and it goes to say
Well you grandpa and
papa died that way
You're on a road to hell
Drinkin' mad and drinkn' sad and
Drinkin' all around
I know every bitch bar in this damn town
I know where to go when
I'm feeling down
The place to go when
I can't take no more
But there's girl sittin' waitin' for me
Sayin' she's gonna set me free
If i could just get my head out of the bottle
Well i keep drinkin' my life away
The devil said now son, you gotta pay
I keep drinkin' my life away
The devil said now son, you gotta pay
