This time you went just a little too far
Now I don t mind picking you up from some bar
And I m used to dealing with the ways of most men
But I won t come and get you from the jailhouse again
Now I ve sat and watched men fall drunk on the floor
Just like my mother and her ma before
And I was sixteen before I realised that men could walk upright
And open their eyes
Ginwhiskydon t bother me none
But you re so darn proud of the things that you ve done
If you re such a man with such sorrows to drown
Well how come there s always some girl picks you up when you fall
down?
So you go on home and get your guitar
Write some more songs about draining the bar
And if I m so wisewhy don t I show you the door?
Cause you make me laugh
And maybe that s what God made men for
