lyrics

The Road


I tied one on in Baton Rouge
I tied one on in France
And I've have tied the knot with you
If given half a chance
But you'd been lately thinkin’ that
You couldn't stand my drinkin’
I hit the road
I hit the bottle,
That's my way
HEY
I hit the road
I hit the bottle
That’s my way

I lit ‘em up in Tennessee
I shut ‘em down in Spain
I spent three days in jail for reasons
I cannot explain
But all that time I’m drinking
It’s of you I can’t stop thinking
I hit the road
I hit the bottle
That’s my way
HEY
I hit the road
I hit the bottle
That’s my way


A shot of whisky
Smoke in the air
You start at noon but hell
It's five o'clock somewhere
Bartender’s waiting, just like yesterday

Your bottle's empty
And so's the bar
Ain't got a dime left
So you sleep out in the car
Driving at night she
Seems so far away

Ten years of that will kill a man
Or bleed him ’til he’s dry
I quit the drink and looked you up
One cool September night
And there I saw you sitting
With your husband and your child

I hit the road
I hit the bottle
That’s my way
HEY

I hit the road
I hit the bottle
That’s my way
HEY

I hit the road
I hit the bottle
Turned the key and
Blew the throttle
I hit the road
I hit the bottle
That’s my way
