Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I stop by right around five almost every day
I work close by, and this little dive keeps calling out my name
I can't say I'm a regular, I ain't quite there yet
I'm just here for the booze and cigarettes
[Verse 2]
If you wanna sit down beside me, I guess that'd be just fine
But don't tell me your story, boy, and I won't tell you mine
I ain't got one problem, I ain't got no regrets
Yeah, I'm just here for the booze and cigarettes
[Chorus]
The booze goes down easy
And the smoke calms my nerves
It's like nobody sees me
Sitting here all alone, getting just what I deserve
[Verse 3]
I must admit I've noticed she works the Thursday shift
She's so much more than a steady pour, she's got a special gift
She wears no ring, she's a cute little thing, but I ain't ready yet
No, I'm just here for the booze and the cigarettes
[Chorus]
The booze goes down easy
And the smoke calms my nerves
It's like nobody sees me
Sitting here all alone, getting just what I deserved
[Outro]
I stop by right around five almost every day
I work close by, and this little dive keeps calling out my name
I can't say I'm a regular, I ain't quite there yet
Yeah, I'm just here for the booze and cigarettes
Yeah, I'm just here for the booze and cigarettes
