Cheap Whiskey & Bad Cocaine

I ain’t ever been on the radio

 barely got a dime to my name 

 Never walked down no red 

 carpet never had my 15 minutes of fame 

 But I know in my heart I could be a star 

 Until everyone else feels the same 

 I’ll be riding high, as a Georgia Pine

 On cheap whiskey and bad cocaine 

  

 I ain’t ever worked the factory line

 9 to 5 would drive me insane 

 But I’ve been keeping busy ‘cause 

 You know what folks like to stay 

 They say idle hands do the devil’s work

 So I’ve been working all night and day

 Putting in overtime with bootleg wine

 Cheap whiskey and bad cocaine 

  

 I’ve had some luck with women but 

 Mostly they just go away

 Angry or sad, then I’m just left 

 With some damn fool heartache 

 I much prefer the kind of hurt 

 That only lasts for a day 

 The next day bed as you’re holding your head

 From cheap whiskey and bad cocaine

  

 If you’re sitting around, all broke down

 You’ve only got yourself to blame 

 ‘Cause the only cure, I know for sure

 Is cheap whiskey and bad cocaine
