Buy and Buy

My preacher's name was Jack Daniel's

Told me about what heaven is like

Said, if the road to there ain't rocky

Son, you must not be doin' it right

I threw my pills out the upstairs window

Drove to the beach to clear my mind

I watched those waves crash to rock bottom

Felt kinda light, this life of mine

Buy and buy, we buy and buy

Ain't nobody buyin' time

We spend our lives, dollars and dimes

But ain't nobody buyin' time

My daddy said, son, better take vacation

Even if your money all ran out

Now, me and daddy, don't talk much no more

But damn, I sure need him right now

You put my name up in your journal

You re-erased and tore out that page

But that's alright, babe, we'll meet in heaven

But only God knows that day

Oh, buy and buy, we buy and buy

Ain't nobody buyin' time

We spend our lives, dollars and dimes

But ain't nobody buyin' time

I broke my pockets, I break my body

I broke some hearts along the way

I can't rewind, no, there's no vacation

Nowhere to save me form this pain

Oh, buy and buy, we buy and buy

But ain't nobody buyin' time

We spend our lives, dollars and dimes

But ain't nobody buyin' time

And I would cling to the old rugged cross

Till my trophies, at last, I lay down

And I will cling to the old rugged cross

And exchange 'em some say for a crown
