Well I've been drinkin' most my lifetime I've never really known another way On Saturday I take all my live-long pay And I piss it all away So won't you please turn up that sweet ol' jukebox Let the music take me far away 'Cause since she left that day All my blue skies have turned gray And I just don't feel like missin' her today When I was young a drunkard told me something "Don't let the swillin' get in the way You've got to hold your own 'Cause like me you'll be alone And you'll have to make it through the day" So won't you please turn up that sweet ol' jukebox Let the music take me far away 'Cause since she left that day All my blue skies have turned gray And I just don't feel like missin' her today
