Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I quit my job on a Friday afternoon
I was feelin' low down and mean as a dog
I called up them boys down in Detroit city
I said, "Hell, we're gonna make it to Nashville after all"
I rolled that diesel through a windy rainy night
Down through the hollers and up through the falls
When that mornin' light shined on that Tennessee state line
I said, "Boys, we gonna have ourselves a ball"
[Chorus]
Well, it's been a long time since I had a good time
And tonight I think I'm gonna take a few dips from the well
Well, well
So order up another round, boys, I'm gonna put 'em down
I got a late start, but tonight, I'm raisin hell
[Instrumental]
I rolled up to this honky tonk on Broadway
And the band played as I strolled through the door
Well, I sat down on my seat, shouted, "Play some Jerry Reed"
They played Amos Moses and I damn near fell on the floor
Well, they played Waylon, Hank, Johnny, Merle, and George Jones
Me and the boys drank and sang off-key
And that guitar pickin' man walked over with a little grin
Said, "What brings you boys down here to Tennessee?
[Chorus]
Well, it's been a long time since I had a good time
And tonight I think I'm gonna take a few dips from the well
Well, well
So order up another round, boys, I'm gonna put 'em down
I got a late start, but tonight, I'm raisin hell
[Instrumental]
Order up another round, boys, I'm gonna put 'em down
I got a late start, but tonight, I'm raisin hell
Order up another round, son, I'm gonna put 'em down
I got a late start, but tonight, I'm raisin hell
Yeah, I got a late start, but tonight, I'm raisin hell
