[Verse 1]
|
I ain't no scholar, I don't write no books
|
I done spend my money on the last girl honey and she hates my guts
|
I paid my rent late, so my landlord's angry
|
And all this shit keeps piling up and tryin' to hang me
|
|
I give my lovin' on the run (on the run, on the run)
|
So don't you try to slow me down and walk around yeah
|
Sick of tryin' to strum along, wit' yo' love song
|
So leave me here to pour another drink on the rocks
|
|
[Hook]
|
All of this will hold you
|
Down onto the ground until you're crawlin' on the gravel
|
Like a regular guy
|
Oh all of this will hold you, down onto the ground
|
Until you're drowning in your sorrows with a bottle of rye
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
I ain't got no savior, I ain't got no time
|
I know I'm stuck with a problem
|
That will come through and swallow up my last dime
|
All I wanted, was some peace and quiet
|
To take me out of here, before I start a riot
|
Lost my reason I done lost my way, I done sat here for hours
|
And heard all the songs that the jukebox plays
|
So keep your sunny days away from here
|
And I'll pour the liquor down and smile while I say
|
|
Life's been on the rocks, I've taken
|
My last shot at holding on to
|
Life's been on the rocks, I've taken
|
My last shot at holding on to
|
|
[Hook]
|
All of this will hold you
|
Down onto the ground until you're crawlin' on the gravel
|
Like a regular guy
|
All, all of this will hold you, down onto the ground
|
Until you're drowning in your sorrows with a bottle of rye
|
|
Like a regular guy
|
