Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, if go down in history, I'll owe it to this misery
From all the lies you told to me and this poor ol' heart you broke
Now people, they might walk on by and never even recognize
That I'm a legend in disguise, not just your average Joe
[Chorus]
You'll probably find a picture of me sippin' on my liquor
If you look up a world-class fool
And I'll say it once again, I'm the best that's ever been
At drinkin' doubles up on this stool
Well, go on, you can shake my hand
'Cause everybody's gonna know my name
When they hang my star behind the bar
At the Honky Tonk Hall of Fame
[Verse 2]
Now see those bottles in a line, and every one's a friend of mine
Aw, mine too
And we have us a real good time in spite of all the pain
But bein' famous has a price, there's smoke and mirrors and neon lights
I'm livin' proof that lonely nights can drive a man insane
[Chorus]
You'll probably find a picture of me sippin' on my liquor
If you look up a world-class fool
And I'll say it once again, I'm the best that's ever been
At drinkin' doubles up on this stool
Well, go on, you can shake my hand
'Cause everybody's gonna know my name
When they hang my star behind the bar
At the Honky Tonk Hall of Fame
[Chorus]
Well, you'll probably find a picture of me sippin' on my liquor
If you look up a world-class fool
And I'll say it once again, I'm the best that's ever been
At drinkin' doubles up on this stool
Well, go on, you can shake my hand
'Cause everybody's gonna know my name
When they hang my star behind the bar
At the Honky Tonk Hall of Fame
[Chorus]
Yeah, they'll hang our stars behind the bar
At the Honky Tonk Hall of Fame
[Outro]
Aw, yeah
Cheers, brother
