Well we're all wasted, in a bar somewhere downtown
When I man walks up and pokes me with a knife
And says: Man im gonna send you to hell
Well I took that knife, I stared him straight in the eyes
I said: Oh boy you better fuckin' run, I've been sittin'
Here just a slammin' down beers, now its time to have some fun
Oh well he hit me hard, yeah he hit me good
And then I fell to the ground, but I kicked him fast
I kicked him real swift and he came a tumblin'
Down He took a stab at me and nearly cut me gut
But I kicked that knife to the floor the I took his Head and slammed it into the bar
I don't think he'll come around no more
Oh Oh Oh
Well I've been drinkin' here for so many damn years Trying to recap my life
Everynight trouble finds my sight and I cant help but fight
With a bottle of Jack and a tin of skoal
I'll be stickin' around
‘till the day a man will put me away and I can rest my soul
Well we're all wasted, in a bar Somewhere downtown
When I man walks up and pokes me with a knife
And says: Man im gonna send you to hell
Well I took that knife, I stared him straight in the eyes
I said: Oh boy this is the day
Then I grabbed that knife, stabbed it straight through my eye and
Then I fell to my knees
Oh Oh Oh
Well I've been drinkin' here for so many damn years Trying to recap my life
Every night trouble finds my sight and I cant help but fight
With a bottle of Jack and a tin of skoal
Tonight I'm goin' home
Today's the day a man put me away and I can rest my soul
