Doug Paisley Drinking With A Friend
Out of the corner of my eye
The prettiest girl just said goodbye
Such a sad day but where was I?
Drinking with a friend
Train in the station
And we'll hop on the back
Nothing to lose
We've got nothing to lack
When we're rolling this fast
We don't look back
Drinking with a friend
Up in the morning
And there's nowhere to go
Too sick to feel the wind blow
Only ever been one cure I know
Drinking with a friend
So many things that I wanted say
Always found the words that got in the way
I looked into your eyes and you turned away
Drinking with a friend
Down at the bottom
And my blood's run thin
I always intended to start again
But I'll never rise above the den
Drinking with a friend
I went out to your window
As black as the coal
Night as empty to sell the souls
The price we pay for alcohol
Drinking with a friend
Nothing to show for nothing I've done
Someday I'll be a skeleton
Put me into the ground
Let me reach for the sun
Drinking with a friend
