Chris Goodwin Band - Shot of Jack Daniels

When I woke up in the morning I was already late for work
I only got one sip of coffee and the rest poured down my shirt
Man I was strugglin', but I was still hustlin' to go make that pay
And I thought I had it figured, I'd erased most of my doubt
Until I walked up to my car to find the air was all let out
Of my front tire, like life conspired, to ruin this day
Well I knew where this was headed
And the only thing that I could think to say, was hey
I need a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro smoke
I need a big screen TV and a damn fine joke
A Red-headed, long-legged girl on my knee
Who tells me that she wants to do whatever I please
You know I don't need no doctor with no fine antidote
I need a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro Smoke
Well I tried to shake it off me, tried to turn this mess around
But then my phone it got to buzzin' I could tell just by the sound
It was my baby, said I was lazy, and she'd packed up her things
Well I tried the voice of reason and I begged her not to go
But before I even finished I could hear that dial tone
That meant she'd hung up, man don't that sum up what this day will bring
Ain't no use in tryin' to fight it
It was over 'fore I stepped into the ring, so I'll just sing
I need a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro smoke
I need a big screen TV and a damn fine joke
A Red-headed, long-legged girl on my knee
Who tells me that she wants to do whatever I please
You know I don't need no doctor with no fine antidote
I need a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro Smoke
Well as soon as I got up I should've climbed back into bed
I should've known right from the start that I was in over my head
Ain't gonna start a cussin' or a pullin' out my hair
I'm gonna ride it out till I can get me somewhere
To get a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro smoke
With a big screen TV and a damn fine joke
A Red-headed, long-legged girl on my knee
Who tells me that she wants to do whatever I please
You know I don't need no doctor with no fine antidote
I need a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro Smoke
I need a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro Smoke
Give me a shot of Jack Daniels and a Marlboro Smoke
