Persuaded, paraded, enebriated, and down
|
Still aware of everything life carries on without
|
'Cause there's one too many faces with dollar sign smiles
|
Got to find the shortest path to the bar for a while
|
|
A long way from happiness
|
In a three-hour-away town
|
Whiskey bottle over Jesus
|
Not forever, just for now
|
Not forever, just for now
|
|
There's a trouble around, it's never far away
|
The same trouble's been around for a life and a day
|
I can't forget the sound, 'cause it's here to stay
|
The sound of people chasing money and money getting away
|
|
A long way from happiness
|
In a three-hour-away town
|
Whiskey bottle over Jesus
|
Not forever, just for now
|
Not forever, just for now
|
|
In between the dirt and disgust there must be
|
Some air to breathe and something to believe
|
Liquor and guns the sign says quite plain
|
Somehow life goes on in a place so insane
|
|
A long way from happiness
|
In a three-hour-away town
|
Whiskey bottle over Jesus
|
Not forever, just for now
|
Not forever, just for now
|
