Drinking Song for Kids - The Growlers

Too many songs, none about drinking

Too many songs of stories un-lived

I get along with my imperfections

I got a song just for the kids

Holding it in, don’t let them find out

You want to keep all your life separate

I don’t plan on having a stage name

You be the judge if I seem pathetic

Here I am, cold as a beer can

That I struggle with until I wake

Here I am warming up in time

In the hands of a God without a name

I drink heavy if you measure in blood

Can’t say no with a friend with a smirk

My ego’s too sore so don’t let me shut up

My mind loves to watch my heart overwork

Here I am, cold as a beer can

That I struggle with until I wake

Here I am warming up in time

In the hands of a God without a name

Let my soul grow strong enough to be written in my eyes

Let them drown in the waves of the salty tears I cried

If whiskey don’t drown me and I make it to the surface

And when I come up and if the smoke ain’t too thick

I’ll turn around and swim back to the bottom

I don’t want to waste my wit

Here I am, cold as a beer can

That I struggle with until I wake

Here I am warming up in time

In the hands of a God without a name

Let my soul grow strong enough to be written in my eyes

Let them drown in the waves of the salty tears I cried

Too many songs, none about drinking

Too many songs of stories un-lived

I get along with my imperfections

I got a song just for the kids

Let my soul grow strong enough to be written in my eyes

Let them drown in the waves of the salty tears I cried
