Another Drink Coming
(c) Neil Newton
                        
Well I was sittin’ on a bar stool
Sippin’ on my bud cool  
Settled down to watch the game
When my buddy gets the phone
Its my baby wants me home  
and he's lookin’ like I'm the one to  blame
He said - the bases are loaded
If you hadn't noticed   
And that pitcher - man he ain't bluffing
and if you think we're leavin’ now you got another drink coming..
 

If you think we're leavin now you got another drink coming
Oh Set em up Joe cos were not gonna go
Can't you see that the place is buzzzin’
Oh That waitress got a smile
like its going outta style
and man she's really something
So If you think we're leavin’ now you got another drink coming


Well my Baby booked a show
And told me I would go
Or I'm sleeping on the couch again
So we're standin’ at the door
When the crowd begins to roar
I'm thinking - well that's over "hell amen"
She said - the mains act still to go 
If you wanna know      
And that Taylor swifts got em pumpin’
and if you think we're leavin’ now you got another drink coming..


If you think we're leavin’ now you got another drink coming
Oh Set em up Joe cos were not gonna go
Can't you see that the place is buzzzin’
Give the band a hand
Cos there giving all they can
and ain't that Taylor something
So If you think we're leavin’ now you got another drink coming

Another Drink Coming

Darker Times
(c) Neil Newton
Key: C


What  you see now Is  what I have become
Some  say the last  resort, some say the  Firstborn son
But  no one  here - wants  me to stick  around
It's the  feeling you  get when the  circus just left town
 
And We were  Latchkey  kids -  betting on a  prayer
Busted AM radios crackling  static in the air
There were  Wore out  preachers -   preaching bout revival
Forgotten like Crushed  flowers between the  pages of that bible

CHORUS
But with some  dollar in my pocket we can be  beautiful again
Cos the  best things in this life are seldom  free
I was  raised up to be  better than the  man they said I'd  be
but down in  Georgia those peaches never fall far from the  tree

BRIDGE
And you  didn't want to  know me in the  darker times
When those that loved you wished that you weren't born
and every  journey that I've taken teaches me along the  way
The  prettiest rose can have the sharpest thorns

They told mamma - the lord looks to his own
But  Sister weren't the  pretty one she'd always walk back home
But if you have a need - to taste the rich mans meat
Keep a loaded pistol in your belt and be quick on your feet

REPEAT CHORUS

I was raised up to be better than the man they said I'd  be
but down in Georgia those peaches never fall far from the tree
In Georgia those peaches never fall far from the tree
