S-U-R-V-I-V-E Lyrics

I was always that boy getting into trouble

Sneaking bottles from my daddy's cupboard

At least he knew that my mama tried

Tonight I showed up 10 minutes late but to me that was early

If ain't getting paid then I ain't in a hurry

It's closing time but I'm still ready to drink

Cause I'm under the influence of Merle Haggard and Waylon

Walking down a road near College Station

Can't find my ride I'm too drunk to drive

If I could find my keys I'd get a DU

I'm running on a cheap bottle of old Jim beam and a half empty can of nicotine

Under the influence of Hank and I'll S-U-R-V-I-V-E

All my friends have done gone home

And I'm sitting here on a sidewalk alone

All the honkytonks are shutting down

The sun's waking up and my head

It's a hurting time to call up one of those blonde headed nurses

Get somewhere to sleep and maybe an IV

Cause I'm under the influence of Merle Haggard and Waylon

Walking down a road near college station

Can't find my ride too drunk to drive

If I could find my keys I'd get a DU

I'm running on a cheap bottle of old Jim beam and a half empty can of nicotine

Under the influence of Hank and I'll S-U-R-V-I-V-E

Everything will be alright just as long as I make it through tonight I'll survive

But right now I'm

Under the influence of Merle haggard and Waylon

Stuck in some apartment don't know the location

Think I lost my keys hope they don't tow my truck

Cause I'm running on a cheap bottle of old Jim beam and a half empty can of nicotine

Under the influence of Hank and I'll S-U-R-V-I-V-E
