If I tried to reach you
If I wrote you a silly love song
Would this love fly high
Would you tell me I was wrong
Words have been known to cut through hearts made of stone
Heaven help me
Finally let this dog burry a bone

Uh-oh this feeling got the best of me
Like yesteryear's New Years eves
When I was drunk and I was stoned
Feeling so alone
Dad raised us on rock and roll
Sex drugs and a lot of alcohol
Always eying me like a hawk
I have to warn you
I don't know when to stop

What would your thoughts be
If you heard your name in one of my songs
Could poetic gestures make up for all the times I did you wrong
Take the time and please read between the lines
Would you see that I was more
Than just a drunk mess lying on the bathroom floor

Uh-oh this feeling got the best of me
Like yesteryear's New Years eves
When I was drunk and I was stoned
Feeling so alone
Dad raised us on rock and roll
Sex drugs and a lot of alcohol
Always eying me like a hawk
I have to warn you
I don't know how to stop

I prefer to chase my whiskey with water
I wonder if I ever passed a son or a daughter
Out on the streets

I prefer to chase my whiskey with water
Damn both of these broken knees

Uh-oh this feeling got the best of me
Like yesteryear's New Years eves
When I was drunk and I was stoned
Feeling so alone
Dad raised us on rock and roll
Sex drugs and a lot of alcohol
Always eying me like a hawk
I have to warn you
I don't know how to stop
Uh-oh this feeling got the best of me
Like yesteryear's New Years eves
When I was drunk and I was stoned
Feeling so alone
Dad raised us on rock and roll
Sex drugs and a lot of alcohol
Always eying me like a hawk
I have to warn you
I don't know how to stop

Uh-oh this feeling got the best of me
Like yesteryear's New Years eves
When I was drunk and I was stoned
Feeling so alone
Dad raised us on rock and roll
Sex drugs and a lot of alcohol
Always eying me like a hawk
I have to warn you
I don't know how to stop

Uh-oh this feeling got the best of me
Like yesteryear's New Years eves
When I was drunk and I was stoned
Feeling so alone
Dad raised us on rock and roll
Sex drugs and a lot of alcohol
Always eying me like a hawk
I have to warn you
I don't know how to stop
