lyrics

I woke up this morning with a
terrible pain in my head
And the ache in my bones made
moving too much to ask
A voice deep inside tells me, buddy,
you’re better off dead
But another one beside it reminds me
where I keep my flask

They say drinkin’ borrows your joy from tomorrow,
But it’s been today all day long
This bottle I’m hitting, I ain’t planning on quitting
Why hangover when you can hang on
Why hangover when you can hang on

For me, clean and sober means I’ve showered, and I’m headed to the bar
And, sure, a day without beer won't kill me, but why take the risk
You see alcohol is a solution to most problems I’ve encountered so far
And going to long without it only makes me feel sick

They say drinkin’ borrows your joy from tomorrow,
But it’s been today all day long
This bottle I’m hitting, I ain’t planning on quitting
Why hangover when you can hang on
Why hangover when you can hang on
