Finished my first beer at 10am
Right back at it again
Burning, burning it down at both ends
Already called my guy
He’s bringing me something to get me through the night
Burning, burning it down at both ends

Might get you out of my head
Keeping this damned ole’ drink in my hand
Forgetting you is taking me burning it down
Burning it down at both ends
Burning it down
Burning it down at both ends

Out at Riley’s by 2pm
Got to be at least a 12 pack in
Burning, burning it down at both ends
Now one of them pills kicked in
I’m chain smoking again
Burning, burning it down at both ends

Might get you out of my head
Keeping this damned ole’ drink in my hand
Forgetting you is taking me burning it down
Burning it down at both ends
Burning it down
Burning it down at both ends

Burning it down at both ends
Burning it down
Burning it down at both ends

Showdown and I’m closing it down
Probably not slowing down now
Burning, burning it down at both ends
Hit the back porch, a couple of lights
Maybe I’ll find some sleep tonight
Burning, burning it down at both ends

Might get you out of my head
Keeping this damned ole’ drink in my hand
Forgetting you is taking me burning it down
Burning it down at both ends
Burning it down
Burning it down at both ends
