I was drinkin' whiskey

You was drinkin' red

Drinkin' like that

You know how the night'll end

(Shit)

Screen door slams

Brown eyed stare

Boots hit the porch

Middle finger in the air

Go and ring the bell

Aw, it's on again

Here we go

Why ya gotta go out like that?

Breakin' bottles, callin' cabs

Them four letter words

On the tip of your tongue

Flying like bullets

From a lipstick gun

Well, we should have just kicked back

And rolled the buzz

Drank it all away

Until the Sun came up

Made a little love when we hit the sack

Baby, why ya gotta go out like that?

Now I'm sittin' out here

Just smokin' on a cigarette

Thinkin' there's maybe, baby

Somethin' that I coulda, woulda, shoulda said

(I love you, that's right)

To stop that screen door slam

Brown eyed stare

Boots hit the porch

Middle finger in the air

Why ya gotta go out like that?

Breakin' bottles, callin' cabs

Them four letter words

On the tip of your tongue

Flying like bullets

From a lipstick gun

Well, we should have just kicked back

And rolled the buzz

Drank it all away

Until the Sun came up

Made a little love when we hit the sack

Baby, why ya gotta go out like that?

I said some things, yeah

Ah, baby

Why ya gotta go out like that?

Breakin' bottles, callin' cabs

Them four letter words

On the tip of your tongue

Flying like bullets

From a lipstick gun

Well, we should have just kicked back

And rolled the buzz

Drank it all away

Until the Sun came up

Made a little love when we hit the sack

Baby, why ya gotta go out like that?

(Bye-bye, yeah)

Damn

(See you in the morning)

That's a barn burner, ouch

I'll be on the couch

Burning cigarettes

Whiskey bottles, oops

Tom petty cassette tapes, my bad

Tom petty cassette tapes

Hungover, hungover

I'm sorry, I'm sorry
