Smoke Break

She's a small-town, hard-workin' woman just tryin' to make a livin'

Workin' three jobs, feedin' four little mouths in a run-down kitchen

When you never taking nothin' and doing nothin' but givin'

It's hard to be a good wife and a good mom and a good Christian

She said, "I don't drink"

"But, sometimes, I need a stiff drink"

"Sipping from a highball glass"

"Let the world fade away"

She said, "I don't smoke"

"But, sometimes, I need a long drag"

"Yeah, I know it might sound bad"

"But, sometimes, I need a smoke break"

He's a big-city, hard-workin' man just tryin' to climb the ladder

First generation to go to college instead of drivin' a tractor

Never had nothin' handed to him on a silver platter

It's hard to be a good man, good son, do somethin' good that matters

He said, "I don't drink"

"But, sometimes, I wanna pop that top"

"Take a swig and make the world stop"

"And watch it fade away"

He said, "I don't smoke"

"But, sometimes, I wanna light it up"

"Yeah, when things get tough"

"Sometimes I need a smoke break, yeah"

Mmm, mmm

So here's to you and here's to when the day gets long

And go ahead, I understand if you wanna take a load off

I-I don't drink

But, sometimes I need a stiff drink

Sippin' from a highball glass

Let the world fade away

Yeah, and I don't smoke

But, sometimes I need a long drag

Yeah, I know it might sound bad

But sometimes I need a, sometimes I need a

(Whoa, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh) When the day gets long

When the work's all done (Oh-oh, oh-oh)

When the sun sets (Sometimes I need a smoke break)

When you need to forget

Grab that cup (Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh)

Mmm, fill it up (Oh-oh, oh-oh)

Sip it slow

And let it all go (Sometimes I need a smoke break)

Ooh
