Lift Ring Pull Open

Jim Ed Brown


There are four words that I printed on most every can of beer
Four words that I live by since my baby's gone away from here
I've sampled all the different friends from every brewery
And found one that goes down just right and soothes my sorrow to a tea
Lift ring pull open it's all spelled out for you
Nothing could be more easy it's something any fool can do
Lift ring pull open and have a drink with me
As I try to forget I'm a loser and drown my misery
Yes sometimes life seems so useless still there are things to look forward to
A little music from a jukebox and a cool refreshing brew
A friendly game of poker with stakes that are too high
Such things will help me pass the time until the day I die
Lift ring pull open that's all you have to do
Nothing could be more easy it's something any fool can do
Lift ring pull open and tip a can with me
As I try to forget I'm a loser and escape this misery
Lift ring pull open don't even need a key
I'll just pop a top and drink to the last drop and drown my misery
