Tried to close my eyes so I can make this big ol' world just disappear
The lining ain't so silver over here
That much is clear
I wish the pain and heartache that I feel inside would up and go away
Things would be so different today
Or so they've said

Well, I could be a pilot and I'd fly around for free
Well, I could run for President and get called out on TV
When I drink enough Jack Daniels, I play the fool for all to see
When the party's over, there ain't nothing left but me

I wake up just as empty as the bottle that I drank the night before
My head feels just as heavy as the pour
Ah, just one more
I guess what I was thinking was somehow I could just drink you off my mind
I guess in this case ignorance is gone
Or I'm just blind

I just get so lonely with the passing of the time
This highway just gets longer, keeping it between the lines
But through a glass of Tito's, man, this world's a sight to see
Oh, but when the party's over, there ain't nothing left but me

I just get so lonely with the passing of the time
This highway just gets longer, keeping it between the lines
When I drank enough Jack Daniels, I play the fool for all to see
Yeah, but when the party's over, there ain't nothing left but me
When the party's over, there ain't no one left but me
