I’ll be drinking whiskey in the parking lot
Bout five or six bucks is all I got
And what I’m getting paid
Won’t even drive me home
Been playing every night this week
My day job won’t let me get no sleep
Gotta pay for drinks
I guess I’ll bring my own
Woke up with an aching head this morning
Sat in traffic til it made sure I was late
Into pieces where my life it seems is falling
But I know somehow it will all be worth the wait
One of the other girls didn’t end up showing
Found out I was gonna have to stay
The tips weren’t for shit
And my boss threw a fit
Now I only got an hour ‘fore I play
When I’ll be drinking whiskey in the parking lot
Bout five or six bucks is all I got
And what I’m getting paid
Won’t even drive me home
Been playing every night this week
My day job won’t let me get no sleep
Gotta pay for drinks
I guess I’ll bring my own
Got home just in time to let the dogs out
Found my shoes in pieces on the floor
Had to starve myself instead of eating dinner
Cuz I ain’t had time to make it to the store
Those dishes keep on piling in the sink
My house looks like it just went through a storm
Got bills in the mail
And my cousin’s in jail
And a disconnection notice on my door
That’s why I’m drinking whiskey in the parking lot
Bout five or six bucks is all I got
And what I’m getting paid
Won’t even drive me home
Been playing every night this week
My day job won’t let me get no sleep
Gotta pay for drinks
I guess I’ll bring my own
Sometimes I think I’ll write a Dear John letter
And leave this life I’m putting myself through
So I pack up my car
But I end up back at the bar
Cuz I ain’t got no John to write it to
That’s why I’m drinking whiskey in the parking lot
Bout five or six bucks is all I got
And what I’m getting paid
Won’t even drive me home
Been playing every night this week
My day job won’t let me get no sleep
Gotta pay for drinks
I guess I’ll bring my own
