Now That Is What I Call (2025) Lyrics

I'll plead the fifth of Jack again

When I go out tonight

They say I was drunk, I threw a punch

I called some big ol' bouncer dumb

So he kicked me out, I snuck back inside

And that's how I got these two black eyes

I got lonely, called my ex

Said, "Can I come over?" She said, "I guess"

So I called a Lyft, he picked me up

'Bout halfway there, I blew some chunks

He kicked me out on Cherry Street

'Bout that time, I saw blue lights blink

Said, "You can't be here, can't sleep here"

So I wеnt to the quick mart, bought a beer

Went back to wherе that cop was parked

And I poured that High Life on his car

And he put me in the back with a dude named Mark

Wound up at the station and here we are

When I see that judge at 8 a.m.

I know my rights and I'll tell him

Islands in the stream

That is what we are

No one in between

How can we be wrong?

Sail away with me

To another world

And we rely on each other, ah ha

From one lover to another, ah ha

Well, I got me a fine wife, I got me old fiddle

When the sun's comin' up, I got cakes on the griddle

Life ain't nothin' but a funny, funny riddle

Thank God I'm a country boy, woohoo!

Well, I wouldn't trade my life for diamonds or jewels

I never was one of them money-hungry fools

I'd rather have my fiddle and my farmin' tools

Thank God I'm a country boy

There is a town at the bottom of that hill

They got a secret that they keep like a slave

They got a black magic preacher

And you'd do well to let him teach ya

You'll be headin' up that hill to the grave

And it is well with my soul

You line your pockets full of money

That you steal from the poor

And on your way down to hell

You'll hear me ring that bell

I'd pay the devil twice as much to keep your soul

Pour me somethin' tall an' strong

Make it a Hurricane before I go insane

It's only half-past twelve but I don't care

It's five o'clock somewhere

I fell into a burning ring of fire

I went down, down, down and the flames went higher

And it burns, burns, burns

The ring of fire, the ring of fire

I fell into a burning ring of fire

I went down, down, down and the flames went higher

And it burns, burns, burns

The ring of fire, the ring of fire
