lyrics

I’m gonna burn my mind out
With a night of heavy drinking
I’ll push away the banshees
That been breaking out my windows

There’s a shotgun full of bourbon
I’ve been aiming at my demons
But they always dodge the bullets
And come calling in the morning

Chorus:
I’ve been called a bitter man
But I don’t deserve the label
I was bitten on the hand
Feeding horses at the stable
If you wanna take a dive into
That murky pool of mine
I’ve got the bottle
If you’ve got the time

I climbed onto the wagon
And I held onto the side
And then it started raining
When I wanted to get dry
I took a look around me
Felt I made a big mistake
Then that road got rough, I fell off
I jumped into the lake

Chorus

I tried to pray to Jesus
But the line got crossed with Hell
And Satan’s secretary
Said I had an unpaid bill
I could afford to pay it
If I signed away my soul
But you can’t pull any water
From this whiskey filled well

Chorus (x2)
