Johnny Paycheck - The Outlaw's Prayer

Drinkin' and Drivin'

Five dollars worth of regular
Three dollars worth of wine
Just hand me a road map
Show me the state line
I got the blues on my bumper
Lord, I gotta leave 'em behind
Yeah, I'm gonna drink and drive
That woman right off of my mind

She bought a ticket for Texas
Left me late last night
I got a ticket this morning for a DUI
10-4, ten dollars is my very last dime
I'm gonna take it and drink and drive
That woman right off of my mind

Breaker, breaker, this is heartache
Now hear me loud and clear
I got a memory on my tailgate
Hey-hey, and old Smokey's on my rear

I'm gonna chase my headlights
'Til I can drink me blind
I'm gonna be drinkin' and drivin'
That woman right off of my mind
Hey, that's on, do it

She took my grandma's picture
And everything I had
I'm half tanked on misery
I've never felt so bad

My walls are filled with nothin'
I can't face 'em tonight
So I'm a-gonna keep drinkin' and drivin'
That woman right off of my mind

Breaker, breaker, this is heartache
Now hear me loud and clear
I got a memory on my tailgate
Lord, and old Smokey's on my rear

I'm gonna chase my headlights
'Til I can drink me blind
I'm gonna be drinkin' and drivin'
That woman right off of my mind

I'm gonna be drinkin' and drivin'
That woman right off of my mind
I'll keep on drivin', honey
