The Devil Makes Three Follow

Lately things ain't been going my way
Consequently I been drinkin nearly every day
It's hard to keep your head up when they're knockin' you down
So I been makin' that old go-round
Drinkin' bottom shelf bourbon to ease my mind
Seems to work alright 'till closing time
But you know you're gonna come down every night
And there ain't know way you'll ever feel satisfied

Ain't that hard to figure where to begin
It's Friday night so I'm rushing in
Like a fool I get it anywhere I can

(Chorus)
Well I've been having a hard time
Walkin' a straight line
Seeing two of every single neon sign
Well now, you'll find me downtown
Gracefully face down
Just wishing I could feel alright

Well lately I've been walking 'round With eyes closed
It seems like I've been headed down the wrong road
Thought I'd find my way by now
But I still got lost somehow
You see, shots fall down from Heaven above
You might lose a friend, you might fall in love
But you know you're gonna come down every night
And there ain't no way you'll ever feel satisfied

Six in the morning 'till your dying day
It's straight bad news and bills to pay
But come five o'clock you're feeling good again

(Chorus)
Well I've been having a hard time
Walkin' a straight line
Seeing two of every single neon sign
Well now, you'll find me downtown
Gracefully face down
Just wishing I could feel alright

Well I been so high I hit my head on the ground
Sat up from the floor seen the room spin 'round
But when you squint real hard through the bottom of the bottle
Things really don't look so bad
You drink cheap malt liquor from a forty-ounce bottle
Fifth of bourbon, some pills if you got 'em
But you know you're gonna come down every night
And there ain't no way you'll ever feel satisfied

There's years of my life I don't remember at all
Like one bright evening I can barely recall
there was a sick situation in a bar-room bathroom stall

(Chorus)
Well I've been having a hard time
Walkin' a straight line
Seeing two of every single neon sign
Well now, you'll find me downtown
Gracefully face down
Just wishing I could feel alright
