Don't ruin it for the rest of us
With your braggin' that you fell in love
Can't you see we're kinda busy here
Swappin lies and cryin' in our beer.
So you're getting married, good for you
It's 1st inning, Braves are down by two
Grab a seat and keep your big mouth shut
And don't ruin it for the rest of us.
I hardly recognized you
With that smile on your face
Your shirt's tucked in
You shaved your chin
And every hair's in place
You smell a whole lot better
Than any body in this bar
Here's a dollar
Buy yourself a cheap cigar.
Don't ruin it for the rest of us
With your braggin' that you fell in love
Can't you see we're kinda busy here
Swappin lies and cryin' in our beer.
So you're getting married, good for you
It's 3rd inning, Braves are down by two
Grab a seat and keep your big mouth shut
And don't ruin it for the rest of us.
You missed the bowling season
Butch blew a perfect game
And when we got the new shirts printed up
There was an "I" in Shooter's name.
Well Ronnie's back to walkin'
He got another D.U.I.
So if you plan on gettin' out of here alive
Don't ruin it for the rest of us
With your braggin' that you fell in love
Can't you see we're kinda busy here
Swappin lies and cryin' in our beer.
So you're getting married, good for you
It's 6th inning, Braves are down by two
Grab a seat and keep your big mouth shut
And don't ruin it for the rest of us.
Don't ruin it for the rest of us
With your braggin' that you fell in love
Can't you see we're kinda busy here
Swappin lies and cryin' in our beer.
So you're getting married, good for you
It's 9th inning, we're about to lose
I told ya twice to keep your pie-hole shut
And don't ruin it for the rest of us.
Can't you see
We've been through enough
Don't ruin it for the rest of us...
