Beers Ago

I had a hand me down ride painted rattle can red Second hand tires with poor boy tread Made a lot of almost love in the bed of that truck That got stuck a lot Just letter jacket boys singing Jerry Jeff songs Drinking everything we could get our hands on Learning 'bout right by doing it wrong Hoping we didn't get caught And we spent what little bit of money we had On wintergreen Skoal and main street gas Go get your girl, go make the drag If you're lucky you can take her cross the rail road tracks Where the man in the moon works his magic On the second runner up of the 4H pageant Seems like yesterday, even though That was fourteen hundred and fifty two beers ago Skipped that town on my birthday For eighteen years I was headed that way Where old red stopped I just stayed In a room without a view I met a one look girl in a two bit bar I had a place, she had a car I won her heart with my guitar I sang her the homesick blues 'bout Spending what little bit of money we had On wintergreen Skoal and main street gas Go get your girl, go make the drag If you're lucky you can take her cross the railroad tracks Where the man in the moon works his magic On the second runner up of the 4H pageant It seems like yesterday, even though That was fifteen hundred and sixty two beers ago Spending what little bit of money we had On wintergreen Skoal and main street gas And go get your girl and go make the drag If you're lucky you can take her cross the railroad tracks Where the man in the moon works his magic On the second runner up of the 4H pageant It seems like yesterday, even though That was sixteen hundred and fifty two beers A whole lot of highway, a whole lot of year Sixteen hundred and fifty three beers ago
