This ole beer gut I got don’t get no smaller

 If I thought it’d do any good I’d go ahead and call her

I’ve been drinkin’ up my pain since she’s been gone

 For every fool there’s a good boss too

 And the same ole sad, sad song

(Chorus)

That beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurtin’ song

Drink a few with a song or two, It never takes me long

As long as I got money I’ll stay where I belong

 Yeah, that beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurtin’ song

My friends keep tellin’ me boy you oughtta quit it

They ain’t the ones that have to drink to forget it

Forgettin’ don’t come easy when you’re sober and all alone

 So I pop my tops and play the jukebox and all the pain is gone

(Chorus)

That beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurtin’ song

Drink a few with a song or two, It never takes me long

As long as I got money I’ll stay where I belong

 Yeah, that beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurtin’ song

As long as I got money I’ll stay where I belong

 Yeah, that beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurtin’ song
